The IRF Roundtable is an informal group of individuals from non-governmental organizations who gather regularly to discuss IRF issues on a non-attribution basis. It is simply a safe space where participants gather, speak freely in sharing ideas and information, and propose joint advocacy actions to address specific IRF issues and problems. In response to various participant-led initiatives regarding the protection and promotion of freedom of religion, conscience, and belief in the U.S. and abroad, all participants have the opportunity to self-select into coalitions of the willing.

RALLY AT WHITE HOUSE AND EGYPTIAN EMBASSY FOR COPTIC PROTECTION AND EQUALITY

Dear IRF Roundtable Participants,Coptic Solidarity, The Coptic Canadian Association, the Middle East Freedom Forum, and all free Copts in the US invite you to join a peaceful demonstration at the White House and the Egyptian Embassy in Washington, DC on Friday, Dec. 21 from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM to demonstrate for the sake of our beloved country Egypt and the persecuted Copts therein.

We invite all Egyptians to show solidarity and raise a voice of protest against what is happening to the Copts in Egypt. In one week, a Coptic church was burnt down, another was shut down, nine Copts arrested, a police officer murdered a peaceful Copt and his son, and a Coptic lady disappeared. All this means carte blanche against the Copts.

Copts are living in a difficult time and the tears of Coptic families are incessant. This is a new era of persecution.

Here are the details:
