520    "Many of us can recall the targeting of South Asian, Arab,
       Muslim, and Sikh people in the wake of 9/11. We may be 
       less aware, however, of the ongoing racism directed 
       against these groups in the past decade and a half. In We 
       Too Sing America, nationally renowned activist Deepa Iyer 
       catalogs recent racial flashpoints, from the 2012 massacre
       at the Sikh gurdwara in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, to the 
       violent opposition to the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro, 
       Tennessee, and to the Park 51 Community Center in Lower 
       Manhattan. Iyer asks whether hate crimes should be 
       considered domestic terrorism and explores the role of the
       state in perpetuating racism through detentions, national 
       registration programs, police profiling, and constant 
       surveillance. She looks at topics including Islamophobia 
       in the Bible Belt; the "Bermuda Triangle" of anti-
       immigrant, anti-Muslim hysteria; and the energy of new 
       reform movements, including those of "undocumented and 
       unafraid" youth and Black Lives Matter. In a book that 
       reframes the discussion of race in America, a brilliant 
       young activist provides ideas from the front lines of post
       -9/11 America."--|cProvided by publisher. 
520    "Since 9/11, we continue to hear incomplete and sanitized 
       histories ... that all too often neglect the experiences 
       of South Asian, Arab, Muslim, and Sikh immigrant 
       communities in the United States. Activist Deepa Iyer 
       catalogs recent racial flashpoints, from the 2012 massacre
       at the Sikh gurdwara in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, to the 
       relentless opposition to the Islamic Center of 
       Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and to the Park 51 Community 
       Center in Lower Manhattan. Iyer places the hate violence, 
       Islamophobia, and xenophobia in a broader context -- that 
       of an American racial landscape undergoing a rapid and 
       radical demographic transformation. Iyer shows how South 
       Asian, Arab, Muslim, and Sikh immigrant communities engage
       in ... undocumented youth, Black Lives Matter, and Black-
       Brown coalitions that can inspire new directions for 
       racial justice in the United States. "--|cJacket.
