Through twelve stylish 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy looking at topics as diverse as 'Is Jackass Justifiable?', 'Open Mindedness on Independence Day' and 'Ambition, Terrorism and Empathy', Salaita explores why Arabs are marginalized, and who seeks to benefit from this. He goes on to make the case that Arabs and Muslims urgently need to be included in the conversations that people have about American geopolitics. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePart of a long tradition of politically engaged writing, and a trailblazer in the emerging genre of Arab-American writing, this book is eminently readable and relevant to our times.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven Salaita\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848132352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848132351\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Steven Salaita","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125475504383,"sku":"9781848132351","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_02b88894-f337-473e-b206-39237ab989d6.jpg?v=1687442843","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-uncultured-wars-doctor-steven-salaita-9781848132351","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
