Brothers and Others – The Impact of September 11 on Muslims and Arabs in America
Directed by
The impact of September 11th attack on Arabs and Muslims in America. Fear and ignorance turn into boycott and prejudices. Thanks to interviews with Arab and Muslim immigrants, government representatives, and a select group of legal and historical experts, this film explores the causes and growth of a phobia getting as far as the denial of civil rights to a whole religion or a political group. America's fear of terrorism has negatively impacted a substantial portion of the immigrants as well as US nationals with the wave of racial intolerance and reactionary legislation, social and economic discrimination and seclusion.
