As she explains, she had also never felt the sting of discrimination directed at her Arab or Muslim identity. In fact, when Sarsour began to wear her religious headscarf, she was showered with both adoration and sincere interest. After September 11, however, her embrace of her cultural identity was no longer simply interesting to her American colleagues; it was now heavily identified with that of September 11 terrorists. In the face of discrimination that she now faced, Sarsour did not back down. This article traces her journey as an activist and a leader within the Arab American Association of New York. As she analyzes the repercussions of September 11, Sarsour suggests that the event made clear to her and other Arab Americans that they were not seen as a coordinated and politically organized community. Consequently, their new focus became one of civic engagement, allowing them to emerge at the forefront of discussions and debates in the wider community.","PeriodicalId":297214,"journal":{"name":"Race/Ethnicity: Multidisciplinary Global Contexts","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130247013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reality that those dangerous people had crossed vast ocean borders and struck at the heart of a superpower allowed a distorted narrative to be constructed that fell directly in line with precarious stereotypes—dehumanizing entire populations—as well as drastically narrowing policy decision making and public debate about if and how to respond to these attacks. The lens through which the American public was encouraged to view the world sharpened the focus on an already present “us-vs.-them” mentality. This post–September 11 narrative of a “war on terrorism” has now become firmly grounded in the American lexicon, the mainstream American public’s understanding of the world, and their interpretation of what it means for America’s role in the world. This essay explores how the narrative of the “war on terrorism” and the view of the world that it encourages have relied on long-standing stereotypes, activated primitive portions of our brains, played on our inability to think rationally under great stress, and divided us as a country. The essay will also point to some preliminary research—almost ten years later—that suggest the American public is open to an alternative narrative about safety and security that will help all of us better understand the world in which we live.","PeriodicalId":297214,"journal":{"name":"Race/Ethnicity: Multidisciplinary Global Contexts","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115478636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This shift was the result of the post–September 11 victimization faced by innumerable members of the South Asian community in New York City. In this paper, Seecharran documents the ways that SAYA!, which had initially functioned as a youth center, quickly expanded its agenda and programs to serve as a clearinghouse. Other changes included the addition of mental health counseling, legal services, and community education programs. SAYA!’s ability, even with its limited resources, to adapt to post–September 11 social landscape shows that the 2001 terrorist attacks, while tragic, also gave birth to new leadership and creativity in the South Asian community.","PeriodicalId":297214,"journal":{"name":"Race/Ethnicity: Multidisciplinary Global Contexts","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115701107","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper starts by giving a summary of the work done by Minority Women in Action (MWA), a local LBTI organization. It then goes into the various concerns being addressed by MWA and other Kenyan LGBTI organizations. These concerns are described as twofold. On the one hand, there is ignorance of sexuality and sexual orientation, compounded by inherited colonial criminal law, dogmatic religious belief, and the rigidity of social and sexual hierarchies. On the other hand, there are poverty levels among LGBTI and wider communities alike. Thereafter, the paper discusses the challenges and impacts of race, culture, and gender on LGBTI activism. The fourth section outlines various policy changes that are needed if there is to be more successful advocacy of LGBTI rights. Finally, the essay concludes with some factors that have thus far contributed to MWA success.","PeriodicalId":297214,"journal":{"name":"Race/Ethnicity: Multidisciplinary Global Contexts","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122908674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By looking at how the adopted self uses art as a site in which to negotiate the question of identity formation, I hope to make apparent the constructive relation between adoptee aesthetic discourse, gender, and race. The analysis thus intends to challenge our notions of identity, gender, and self, precisely by looking at how discourse is performed in order to transform and, eventually, engender our selves.","PeriodicalId":297214,"journal":{"name":"Race/Ethnicity: Multidisciplinary Global Contexts","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123858666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From their refugee experiences in Egypt or Kakuma, where many arrived alone but were placed with foster families, to their long and arduous process of resettlement in new cultures, Sudanese young women seem to still be “lost”—predominantly in the eyes of the media. This article troubles notions of belonging and resettlement for those who—like Sudanese diasporic young women—remain invisible and (underrepresented) in resettlement figures and programs, but whose tasks in resettlement highlight the gendered differences this process demands. Despite lower levels of schooling and increasing research that suggests they are at higher risk of disengagement than their male peers, young women from refugee pasts are finding alternative and increasingly creative ways of making their voices heard. This paper draws on the work of James Clifford and Peter McLaren and on my doctoral research project, Cross-Marked: Sudanese Australian Young Women Talk Education to provide an alternative space where these young women’s voices can be heard, their stories told. Media and educational spaces can begin to offer them opportunities that for too long have been “lost.” The reader might also wish to view the films under discussion at http://web.mac.com/amharris.","PeriodicalId":297214,"journal":{"name":"Race/Ethnicity: Multidisciplinary Global Contexts","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127892777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
