| Summary: | In the wake of the 9/11 tragedy, scholars and journalists alike wrote extensively of how community solidarity blossomed as Americans struggled to recover from collective trauma experienced across the nation. Unfortunately, amid the stories of neighbors feeding and comforting one another, the painful reality of post-9/11 backlash against Muslim Americans was often erased by discursive emphases on the goodwill shared among friends, family, and strangers., Behind the Backlash: Muslim Americans after 9/11 presents Lori Peek's research on how Muslim Americans have been actively excluded from the postdisaster “altruistic community” of the post-9/11 United States. |
