Dear members of NAAJA
Dear Ray
It is with profound honor and pride that we at Washington Association of Arab Journalists (WAAJ) congratulate you and the NAAJA members as well as the Arab community in Dearborn for making this conference a success.
We at WAAJ consider NAAJA a sister organization that represents journalists of Arab heritage across the nation. WAAJ on the other hand is a representative of Arab and Arab –American journalists in the Washington D.C area. Our institution represents newspapers and Satellite channels that transmit from the Arab World into and outside the Arab world.
With this in mind, we at WAAJ hope and aspire that we can join forces with NAAJA to build a much bigger and stronger organization that will represent us all.
A new organization that will have NAAJA’s grass root national presence and WAAJ’s Washington and the Arab world strong presence will be the best hope to defend our members’ rights and above all present the story and the perspective of the Arab world in this country.
Ray, as a “historic figure” in the Chicago Arab press and media, you know how important for our community and its institutions to speak in one voice and to be represented by strong institutions. Therefore, my friend, let’s put our hands together and start working together.
In closing, we, again, congratulate you and Liala Hussini for your hard work and efforts to make this conference a success and our hope and goal that by next year, conference there will one big organization that represent us all, and we all will be in one conference.
Thank you so much and God Bless all of you
Yours truly
Mohammad Dalbah
President
