Anan Ameri: Love and Leadership in Arab America

posted on: Dec 17, 2016

Feel Like You Belong

Dr. Anan Ameri says she moved to Detroit, Michigan, from the Middle East for a PhD, but it was really for love.  Decades later, she can step back and proudly behold the legacy of love that she has given her adopted community. Beyond the founding of two noble institutions (Palestine Aid Society of America and Arab American National Museum), she counts as her proudest accomplishment the mentoring of countless young women who are now leaders in their own right.  A native of Palestine, Dr. Ameri was recently inducted into the Michigan Women’s Hall of Fame.
