For Middle Eastern and Muslim Americans, 9/11 also ushered in a backlash in the form of hate crimes, discrimination, and a string of devastating government initiatives. This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of the impact of the post-9/11 events on Middle Eastern and Muslim Americans as well as their organized response. Through fieldwork and interviews with community leaders, Anny Bakalian and Mehdi Bozorgmehr show how ethnic organizations mobilized to demonstrate their commitment to the United States while defending their rights and distancing themselves from the terrorists. 606 $aWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001$xInfluence 606 $aHate crimes$zUnited States 606 $aMuslims$zUnited States 606 $aArab Americans$xCrimes against$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001$xInfluence. 615 0$aHate crimes 615 0$aMuslims 615 0$aArab Americans$xCrimes against 676 $a973.931 700 $aBakalian$b Anny P$01055001 701 $aBozorgmehr$b Mehdi$01055002 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465159303321 996 $aBacklash 9$92488057 997 $aUNINA
