Examines how the lives of Muslim Americans have been affected in the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks. It focuses on six Muslim families--U.S. citizens and long-time legal residents from diverse countries and widely different circumstances. In one way or another, all of them have been targeted: by federal agencies, hate groups, and even former friends, solely on the basis of their religious beliefs. Family separations, threats of deportation, repeated airport detentions, and unexpected travel restrictions have become part of teh daily lives of thousands of Muslims, who are innocent of any crimes or even suspicious behavior. If one group can be singled out because of their religious beliefs, then who's next?
