hate crimes after September 11  

Definition

  • This entry discusses the violence toward individuals and communities presumed to be Muslim following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, on the World Trade Centers in New York City and the attack on the Pentagon. While Muslims have been targets because of the racialization of religion, other communities—such as Sikhs—have been mistakenly targeted.
