Civil Rights in Peril: The Targeting of Arabs and Muslims |
| Elaine Hagopian |
| Haymarket Books/Pluto Press, 2004, paperback, 322 pp. |
| An investigation into how the post-9/11 political and social landscape has accelerated the "war on terrorism" and the demonization of Arabs and Muslims. This anthology looks at legislation and regulations affecting civil liberties before and after Sept. 11; at how the demonization of Arabs and Muslims is sustained through media manufacture of racist images; and at how the domestic shift to the right has led to the criminalization of Arab and Muslim communities as communities. Contributors are M. Cherif Bassiouni, Susan M. Akram and Kevin R. Johnson, Nancy Murray, Robert Morlino, Will Youmans, Samih Farsoun, Naseer Aruri, and Elain Hagopian. |
