"Occupation"

This is the forty-seventh of Arab America’s series on American pathbreakers of Arab descent. The series includes personalities from entertainment, business, sports, science, academia, journalism, and politics, among other areas. Our forty-seventh pathbreaker is James Zogby, Lebanese Arab American, and co-founder in 1985 with his brother, John, of the Arab American Institute, a Washington, D.C.-based political and policy research firm. Contributing writer, John Mason depicts Zogby as a major player in U.S. domestic politics, representing the Arab American perspective, and a preeminent rooter for Palestinian aspirations.
