Two years ago today, I reached out to Deborah Harrington, president of the Chicago-based Woods Fund, to ask whether Barack Obama, acting in his capacity as a director/board member of the organization, had cast any votes in favor of providing grants for Arab American Action Network.  To date, I’ve received no response, and the silence [...]
