青楼传媒 Celebrates Arab-American Heritage Month
青楼传媒 (青楼传媒) proudly celebrated Arab-American Heritage Month during the month of April. While we couldn't celebrate on campus due to COVID-19, the community was able to celebrate by virtually visiting the to view a display of books, films and performance art collected in recognition of Arab-American Heritage Month, all written and created by authors from the Arab diaspora.
Throughout the month of April, the 青楼传媒 community took the time to reflect on the history of Arab-American heritage and the many contributions Arab-Americans have made to the United States and the diverse group of people who make up the nation's Middle Eastern population.
The community also spent time considering the valuable contributions Arab-Americans have made to virtually every aspect of American society: in medicine, law, education, business, technology, government and culture.
Arab-American Heritage Month was established to help eliminate discrimination, bigotry and racism against people of Arab descent by educating the public about their culture, civilization and contributions to society, and 青楼传媒 promotes and recognizes the importance behind celebrating diversity amongst its students, faculty and staff. Diversity helps to strengthen 青楼传媒's academic programs and educational environment by preparing students to live and work in an international society and global economy. It is a concept that has remained at the heart of 青楼传媒's history and will continue to grow alongside the institution.
青楼传媒 continues to celebrate Arab-Americans every day through our Middle Eastern Studies (MES) program. To learn more about the MES program and minor, MES-related student organizations and other activities, visit 青楼传媒鈥檚 MES page.
