A Debt to Those Who Know Us /Nasser, Nasir --About the Editors and Author of the Introduction"While 9/11 and its aftermath created a traumatic turning point for most of the writers in this book, it is telling that none of their essays begin with that moment. These young people were living, probing, and shifting their Muslim identities long before 9/11.... I've heard it said that the second generation never asks the first about its story, but nearly all the essays in this book include long, intimate portrayals of Muslim family life, often going back generations. These young Muslims are constantly negotiating the differences between families for whom faith and culture were matters of honor and North America's youth culture, with its emphasis on questioning, exploring, and inventing one's own destiny."-from the Introduction by Eboo PatelIn Growing Up Muslim, Andrew Garrod and Robert Kilkenny present fourteen personal essays by college students of the Muslim faith who are themselves immigrants or are the children of immigrants to the United States. In their essays, the students grapple with matters of ethnicity, religious prejudice and misunderstanding, and what is termed Islamophobia. The fact of 9/11 and subsequent surveillance and suspicion of Islamic Americans (particularly those hailing from the Middle East and the Asian Subcontinent) have had a profound effect on these students, their families, and their communities of origin.Muslim college studentsNew HampshireHanoverBiographyMuslim youthEducation (Higher)New HampshireHanoverElectronic books.Muslim college studentsMuslim youthEducation (Higher)378.1/9828297Garrod Andrew1937-Kilkenny RobertPatel EbooMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465174703321Growing up Muslim1906314UNINA
