Download or read book The Rise of the Arab American Left written by Pamela E. Pennock and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first history of Arab American activism in the 1960s, Pamela Pennock brings to the forefront one of the most overlooked minority groups in the history of American social movements. Focusing on the ideas and strategies of key Arab American organizations and examining the emerging alliances between Arab American and other anti-imperialist and antiracist movements, Pennock sheds new light on the role of Arab Americans in the social change of the era. She details how their attempts to mobilize communities in support of Middle Eastern political or humanitarian causes were often met with suspicion by many Americans, including heavy surveillance by the Nixon administration. Cognizant that they would be unable to influence policy by traditional electoral means, Arab Americans, through slow coalition building over the course of decades of activism, brought their central policy concerns and causes into the mainstream of activist consciousness. With the support of new archival and interview evidence, Pennock situates the civil rights struggle of Arab Americans within the story of other political and social change of the 1960s and 1970s. By doing so, she takes a crucial step forward in the study of American social movements of that era.

Book excerpt: The story of "What am I" for Arab/Middle Eastern American adolescents is a complex journey of identification and acculturating into American society. Racial and ethnic identity and acculturation are core components for the social and psychological development of adolescents and has been linked to psychological well-being, decrease in stress levels and a decrease in health risks (Amer, 2005; Berry, 1998; Phinney, 2003). Arab/Middle Eastern American population can internally categorize and self-identify with different racial categories and ethnic groups (Awad, 2010; Naber, 2000). These issues are increasing in importance for the American education system since, 25% of the Arab/Middle Eastern population within the United States is under the age of 18 (Asi & Beaulieu, 2013; Brittingham & de la Cruz, 2005). The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between acculturation and the ethnic and racial identification for Arab/ Middle Eastern American adolescents' subgroups. The study included exploring the role of nationality and cultural origins for Arab/ Middle Eastern American adolescents on the acculturation process and ethnic identification. This study utilized the methodology of quantitative survey design that consisted of Phinney and Ong's (2007) Multigroup Ethnic Identity Measure Revised MEIM-R survey and acculturation was measured using a modified version of the Acculturation, Habits, and Interests Multicultural Scale for Adolescents, AHIMSA by Unger et al. (2002). The results of this study did not provide significant evidence of a relationship between acculturation and the ethnic and racial identification for Arab/Middle Eastern American adolescents' subgroups, specifically adolescents with nationality origins of Iraq, Pakistan, and Syria. The results of this study did not provide significant evidence that nationality origins play a role in the acculturation strategies utilized by the participants or the strength of their ethnic identity. These findings contradict previous literature. The study also found that a quantitative study does not provide enough information on acculturation and racial and ethnic identification for Arab and Middle Eastern American high school students.

This book was released on 2015-08-17 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Conversion to Islam in the United States, Volume 1: White American Muslims before 1975 is the first in-depth study of the thousands of white Americans who embraced Islam between 1800 and 1975. Drawing from little-known archives, interviews, and rare books and periodicals, Patrick D. Bowen unravels the complex social and religious factors that led to the emergence of a wide variety of American Muslim and Sufi conversion movements. While some of the more prominent Muslim and Sufi converts—including Alexander Webb, Maryam Jameelah, and Samuel Lewis—have received attention in previous studies, White American Muslims before 1975 is the first book to highlight previously unknown but important figures, including Thomas M. Johnson, Louis Glick, Nadirah Osman, and T.B. Irving.
