Arab American National Museum
- Yemeni Community Reception
The AANM’s freshly updated Yemeni
exhibits came to life last week when several Yemeni Americans whose
stories are now told at the Museum attended a reception in honor of the
new displays. Among those on hand for the debut were (from left) Ali
Baleed Almaklani (vice president, ACCESS Executive Committee and
president, Yemeni American Benevolent Association); noted surgeon Dr.
Rashid Abdu; and Sgt. Jamal Baadani of the U.S. Marines, whose
accomplishments are now all chronicled in the Coming To America,
Living In America and Making An Impact exhibits. The AANM
updated the exhibits in response to input from the Yemeni community
following the Museum’s 2005 opening. To view more pictures and view
