In the book she talked about how Islamic school was covered with bloody pork chops and pelted with rocks after the 911 incident, but Nada want people to know that her religion don’t mean terrorist but mean patience, harmony and understanding. Most Americans see people from different country we judge them as terrorist or something but that’s not true. The reason I say that because everybody not terrorist and some people might not even come from the same background. How I feel that before people get judge one race or culture we need spend more time getting know that person or culture. The reason I say that because people have they stereotype against black people that we are lazy and all we do is steal, but that’s not true because we hard working people just like everybody else.

Walking in the grocery story it was Muslim lady at the counter at first I stared at her because I thought she was rude or didn’t like black people. I stopped and had talk with her so from my own perception they are nicest people that I came across because they so humble and they will answers any questions that you want to know about they religion.

The main thesis of the essay is that Mark Conditt was the bomber in the situation which is true. The main point is to inform people about the latest news of the bombings and who the killer is. The fact that officers can go so far as to go on to surveillance cameras around the area and find suspects makes me feel a lot safer. It is crazy how good technology has gotten these days.

Instead of using prejudice or stereotypes, where negative thoughts and attitudes are created and shared, she extends it to the level of discrimination and racism. Although instead of calling it racism, she uses “eyeism”, as she is discriminating on the basis of eye color rather than skin color. She calls all white men “boy”, she interrupts them when they are talking and she talks to them like she is superior. She uses the racism, prejudice, stereotypes and discrimination black individuals have experienced for hundreds of years and turns it around on the white

The book was challenged by a middle school in Brentwood, Tennessee in 2006 because the book contains “profanity” and “contains adult themes such as rape and incest.” The complaints also say that the book promotes “racial hatred, racial division, racial separation, and promotes white supremacy.” The people that say that are people that are trying to ‘protect’ other people from knowing and understanding what happened in the past because they believe that if they do know and understand what happened in the past then they will become racist and believe in white supremacy. These kinds of people are like the Holocaust deniers who believe that six million Jews where not murdered despite all of the evidence against that. George Santayana once said “Those who cannot remember the past are bound to repeat it.”

As a result, the media that cover these events dictate what and how they are shared. However, it only helps to feed our sense of fear towards terrorism as well as fuel the Muslim stereotype. In fact, according to a study on deconstructing the terrorism- news media relationship, “terrorists use media as a tool to gain increased coverage and communicate their message,” but sometimes the news does it for them (Ross). For example, in the UCLA shooting, where two men were killed in a murder-suicide, the news’ portrayal of the situation led many to believe that there were multiple attackers instead of just the one. While this may not directly convey terrorists’ message, it helps to spread unnecessary fear of terrorism in our communities.
