Raising the Red Flag: the Continued Relevance of the Japanese Internment in the Post-hamdi World |

Most of what I have learned and internalized about the Japanese internment came from my mother, Mariko Hirata. My mother was just a young girl when her own government imprisoned her.

Terrorists & Muslims: the Construction, Performance, and Regulation of Muslim Identities in the Post 9/11 United States |

Where there is power there is resistance. Sadly, some of us Muslims are often quite rude to one another: not only do we brand each other as infidels, we oppress each other . Words like kufr (infidelity), shirk (associating partners with God, i.e. polytheism), and bid'a (heretical innovation) flow far too easily from our tongues. The finger that... |

2004 UCLA Journal of Law and Technology 4 (2004) |

The Obstacles to Regulating the Hawala: a Cultural Norm or a Terrorist Hotbed? |
27 Fordham International Law Journal 2007 (June, 2004) |
In its efforts to stymie the flow of funds for terrorists, the U.S. government has, since September 11th, put a halt to many hawala operations. As the Al Barakaat, Alshafei, and Albanna cases show, however, these actions have needlessly sideswiped many civilians with no terrorist involvement, resulting in financial damages and civil rights...; Search Snippett: ...with civil liberties implications); Eric Lichtblau, Threats and Responses: American Muslims; F.B.I.

Civil Liberties Post-september 11: a Time of Danger, a Time of Opportunity |
2 Seattle Journal for Social Justice 3 (Fall/Winter, 2003) |
From legal scholarship to pop culture, the statement September 11 changed everything has become almost a mantra. More often than not, the phrase is not invoked with a clear articulation of what in fact has changed, but as a way of explaining why security measures must trump civil rights. Because so much in the United States, if not the world, was...; Search Snippett: ...Law After September 11, 2001: The Targeting of Arabs and Muslims , 58 N.Y.U. Ann. Survey Am .
