From the surveillance of Arab activists that began in the 1960s and laws in the 90s that broadened the definition of terrorism, to the mass detention of entire Muslim communities in the 2000s and the rise of think tanks and nonprofits that sowed panic about the threat of Islam itself, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eSeasons of Fury\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e shows that the history of policies that have warped the American perception of Muslim communities reaches deep into our past.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThrough the powerful stories of four families across eight decades, Ali narrates a range of Muslim experiences shaped by relentless suspicion and prejudice. Introducing readers to Abdeen Jabara, Mohammad Ali Chaudry, Shahina and Matin Siraj, and the pseudonymous Omar family, she shows how fears about American Muslims have always been inextricable from the Israel–Palestine conflict, stoking the idea of a religious war between Muslims and the West.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUltimately, the U.S. government’s Islamophobic policies disillusioned generations of Muslims who sought the promise of the American dream only to find their communities torn apart, their relatives imprisoned, and their religion villainized by politicians and media. Ali’s story of how we got to our terrifying present is a magisterial accomplishment and a damning indictment of the United States’ abandonment of its core principles in the face of fear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note all event books will ship about a week after the event takes place. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.nypl.org\/products\/book-stamping\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGet your Book Stamped for Free\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRozina Ali (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eType: \u003c\/b\u003eHardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 464\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eItem Number: \u003cspan\u003e9780593239544\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52880808214848,"sku":"9780593239544","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/4528\/files\/seasons-of-fury-book.jpg?v=1785340832","url":"https:\/\/shop.nypl.org\/products\/seasons-of-fury","provider":"The New York Public Library Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
