About  [Edit]

Our Aims:

* To encourage our Arab youth to write
* To offer members a professional network
* To urge members to publish their work in mainstream publications
* To support sister and brother writers in the Arab world
* To welcome established writers as well as writers beginning their career
* To prepare a guide to Arab-American writers

We are open to fiction and non-fiction writers, essayists, poets, journalists, photojournalists, artists who work with words, and academics of Arab heritage from the Arab lands-- Magreb to Mashreq. Arab heritage is an essential component of our identity, although not an essential subject matter of our work.

This is a professional organization largely concerned with English medium literary works and professionals working in English. We therefore are concerned with developing strong and professional ties with American English language institutions, whether journals, English departments, publishers, editors, or writers.

We seek to represent a progressive voice in the American community, and a voice for justice in the US and abroad. We seek to promote the building of coalitions, and collaborate with others around issues of social justice.
