| Summary |
This is a powerful indictment of dominant American liberal-left discourse. Through 12 essays Steven Salaita returns again and again to his core themes of anti-Arab racism and Islamophobia and the inadequacy of critical thought amongst the 'chattering classes', showing how racism continues to exist in the places where we would least expect it. |
