متن يادداشت
Most Americans misunderstand the terms "Arab" and "Muslim," while also casting Arabs and Muslims as threats to national security. These perceived threats have led to the justification of the oppression of Arab and Muslim Americans similar to other minority groups in the United States, as non-Arab and non-Muslim Americans have been inundated with negative stereotypes through the news media, entertainment industry and the educational system. However, unlike with other groups, little research has been performed to analyze strategies on how to address the existence of prejudice against Arabs and Muslims among students with little to no contact with the two groups. The findings of this study suggest the need for more research on the potential ability of an Anti-Racist Education unit to address misconceptions about Arabs and Muslims in the United States and the resulting discrimination against the groups.
