Occasionally, most of them watched the Hurt Locker a few too many times.
You'd be surprised how little issue there is here in Florida. My Syrian quarter is the side I am most in tune with. My Italian half is so-so.
The rest is mutt. I am the third generation or more born here for each of my lineage with my Arabic attributes most predominate. I heard minor things after 9/11 around high school, but made sure to put those people in their place.
The difference in my case is that I am not Muslim. I am Christian. That is yet another misconception that most Americans have.
Just because a person is Arabic or of Arab descent doesn't mean that he or she is Muslim. Just because a person is Muslim doesn't mean that he or she is Arabic. As for the anti-Arabs, I haven't had the pleasure of dealing with too many.
I count those persons Blessed because Lord knows I could bring even the strongest persons to tears without lifting so much as a finger.
But I hate the Operating System you're running on it. Make the switch to follow Christ and you're little said problem will vanquish like vapour and any enemy you then have will be wholly vile, and be made weak as water! Desta Christ.
A lot of Americans equate terrorists to Muslims, and Muslims to Arabs. The majority don't understand you can be a Muslim and not an Arab, or an Arab and not a Muslim, or more shockingly you can even be a Muslim without being a terrorist.
My mom is one, I've been trying to teach her that not everyone from the Middle East is in the Taliban and everyone with the name Ahmed or Saleh is not out to kill her.
Because of the 9/11 attacks I see anti-arabs a lot because people take their anger out on all arabs when really only a really tiny majority of them attacked the twin towers.
I am not "anti" "arab"...... but I am strongly Anti islam...... and it is a fact that a large % of "arabs" are of islam....... there are more and more of us as the truth of the danger of islam becomes clear to more and more people........ islam is the greatest danger facing the rest of the human population of the earth who seek to live free in personal Liberty I will NEVER SUBMIT to the deceptions of the law of the so-called god allah(islam/koran).
The truth of history and current events.... and my personal experience and obsevation of islam.
I'm assuming you're aware that anti-Muslim =/= anti-Arab but I've yet to meet an actual anti-Arab. I know a large number of anti-Muslims, on the other hand.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
