Description
Summary:Longlisted for the National Book Award, this volume by award-winning New York Times Magazine journalist Rozina Ali is a sweeping narrative history of the U.S. government's broken compact with its Muslim citizens, culminating in the post-9/11 era of mass surveillance and increased violence. Ali examines the history of U.S. government policies and law enforcement practices toward Muslim communities in the United States, tracing their development from surveillance of Arab activists in the 1960s through the War on Terror and mass surveillance after the September 11 attacks. Drawing on the experiences of four Muslim families, the book explores discrimination, political persecution, detention, Islamophobia, and the impact of these policies on Muslim Americans across several decades.--Publisher.
