Young people from these communities have come of age in a time when the question of political engagement is both urgent and fraught. In The 9/11 Generation, Sunaina Marr Maira uses extensive ethnography to understand the meaning of political subjecthood and mobilization for Arab, South Asian, and Afghan American youth. Maira explores how young people from communities targeted in the War on Terror engage with the "political," forging coalitions based on new racial and ethnic categories, even while under constant scrutiny and surveillance, and organizing around notions of civil rights and human rights. The 9/11 Generation explores the possibilities and pitfalls of rights-based organizing at a moment when the vocabulary of rights and democracy has been used to justify imperial interventions, such as the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Maira further reconsiders political solidarity in cross-racial and interfaith alliances at a time when US, nationalism is understood as not just multicultural but also post-racial. Throughout, she weaves stories of post-9/11 youth activism through key debates about neoliberal democracy, the "radicalization" of Muslim youth, gender, and humanitarianism. 000772678 650_0 $$aYouth$$xPolitical activity$$zCalifornia. 000772678 650_0 $$aCivil rights$$zCalifornia. 000772678 650_0 $$aIslamophobia$$zCalifornia. 000772678 650_0 $$aMuslims$$zCalifornia$$xSocial conditions$$y21st century. 000772678 650_0 $$aMinority youth$$zCalifornia$$xSocial conditions$$y21st century. 000772678 650_0 $$aSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001$$xSocial aspects. 000772678 650_0 $$aWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009$$xSocial aspects. 000772678 85200 $$bgen$$hHQ799.2.P6$$iM345$$i2016 000772678 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:772678$$pGLOBAL_SET 000772678 980__ $$aBIB 000772678 980__ $$aBOOK
