Michigan’s Arab American community is one of the largest in the nation, with people immigrating to the state from all over the Arab world. With such a diverse population comes a wide range of political beliefs. In 2016, around a quarter of Arab Americans in the U.S. said that they planned on voting for Donald Trump.

We talked to Rima Meroueh, director of the National Network for Arab American Communities at ACCESS, and Ali Harb, a reporter for the Middle East Eye.
