posted on: Jul 30, 2009

ADC will be represented by Nawar Shora, Legal Director and Director of Diversity Education and Law Enforcement Outreach (LEOP), will appear live tomorrow, Friday July 31, on Washington DC’s only live and local talk show “Lets Talk Live.”

Nawar will be discussing his latest book, The Arab American Handbook (Cune Press, 2009 – www.CunePress.net) and the training seminars on which the book is based. Nawar has been conducting outreach and training seminars for approximately eight years and has presented to a range of audiences that include FBI, DHS, DOJ, local and state law enforcement, as well as multinational airlines, interfaith groups, universities and private corporations.

Washington DC television personalities Natasha Barrett and Doug Mckelway host “Let’s Talk Live” weekdays at noon offering a new and vibrant look at the people and events throughout the DC area. The show will air on ABC News Channel 8 at noon and can be viewed live streaming on http://www.letstalklive.tv.

The Arab American Handbook is a quick, easy to read introductory guide to the Arab, Arab-American, and Muslim cultures. According to Hollywood film critic and renowned author of Reel Bad Arabs Professor Jack Shaheen, The Arab American Handbook is “By far the best short guide to Arab, Arab-American, and Muslim Cultures…an invaluable resource.” It is a non-threatening, fun (sometimes funny), non-politicized quick read. The book is divided into three sections. Section one is the crux of the book and is the primary introductory guide that will help the public (as well as military and government) gain an improved understanding for the people, faiths, and cultures. Section two is a more academic segment and hosts numerous guest essays by professors, such as Jack Shaheen, Juan Cole and David Cole of Georgetown University, academics, advocates, comedians, senior government officials, and retired military. Section three includes a quick glossary guide and timelines of basic history.
