The Arab-American Bar Association of Illinois will hold a press conference Monday morning to share their deep concern for what they said is a significant rise in anti-Arab, Islamaphobic and Anti-Semitic rhetoric.
The press conference is taking place after dueling rallies Sunday in Skokie ended in reports of gunfire.
Police only allowed people with a ticket to the event on the premises, leaving demonstrators to protest yards away from the entrance.
