Though many speak of Islamophobia's roots in racism, have we considered how anti-Muslim rhetoric is rooted in our legal system? Using his unique lens as a critical race theorist and law professor, Khaled A. Beydoun captures the many ways in which law, policy, and official state rhetoric have fueled the frightening resurgence of Islamophobia in the United States. Beydoun charts its long and terrible history, from the plight of enslaved African Muslims in the antebellum South and the laws prohibiting Muslim immigrants from becoming citizens to the ways the war on terror assigns blame for any terrorist act to Islam and the myriad trials Muslim Americans face in the Trump era. He passionately argues that by failing to frame Islamophobia as a system of bigotry endorsed and emboldened by law and carried out by government actors, U.S. society ignores the injury it inflicts on both Muslims and non-Muslims. Through the stories of Muslim Americans who have experienced Islamophobia across various racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic lines, Beydoun shares how U.S. laws shatter lives, whether directly or inadvertently. And with an eye toward benefiting society as a whole, he recommends ways for Muslim Americans and their allies to build coalitions with other groups. Like no book before it, American Islamophobia offers a robust and genuine portrait of Muslim America then and now"--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Islamophobia $z United States. 650 0 $a Islam and politics $z United States. 650 7 $a Islam and politics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00979879 650 7 $a Islamophobia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01737869 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 776 08 $i Online version: $a Beydoun, Khaled A., 1978- $t American Islamophobia. $d Oakland, California : University of California Press, [2018] $z 9780520970007 $w (DLC) 2017054557 941 $a 7 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240305041843.0 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214035536.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200529014353.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20190129010813.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20180613010910.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20180601010355.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20180512010052.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0DDFB6524D0511E89A6C172A97128E48 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
