ADHRB Hosts Bahraini-American Delegation in Washington, D.C.
During the week of January 14, 2013, ADHRB hosted a delegation of Bahraini-Americans to visit Washington, D.C., to discuss the human rights situation in Bahrain with Members of Congress, representatives from non-governmental organizations, and Executive branch officials. Members of the delegation recounted from first-hand stories of the brutal suppression of protests in 2011, and the ongoing effects of discord within Bahrain on the civilian population.
Dr. Qasim Omran wrote an op-ed about his experience working at Salmaniya Medical Center in Bahrain at the outset of the protests, and his impressions of the role of Congress and the Obama administration following his visit to D.C. Dr. Omran’s op-ed was published by Michigan Live.
