The article focuses on the experiences of Arab-Americans in the U.S. after the September 11 terrorist attacks. The use of "designer" laws that target that group almost exclusively are discussed. The author compares the designer laws to the history of racism in the U.S. National prejudices against Muslims and government surveillance of Arab-Americans is discussed today and in U.S. history.
