dc.description.abstractThis thesis examines the identity dilemma among Arab Americans after 9/11 by investigating the status of Arab Americans in the United States in light of their immigration history and the chosen demographic, social and economic characteristics. Studying the opinions of ethnic minorities is an important issue in the United States. Racial identity is one of the primary means by which immigrants integrate in the United States. Drawing on principles of fragmented assimilation, this study examines by looking at the history of Arab immigration to the United States, as an ethnic group in general. Larger questions include the effect of assimilation on the opinions of descendants of second and third generation immigrants, and whether or not the assumption often made is on a monolithic ethnic basis. It also seeks to show case the impact of each of the Arab-Israeli conflicts and the Iranian hostage crisis on the Arab community in America. Likewise, identity, which in turn implies under static and dynamic considerations, is a mystery to many Arab Americans, whether they are Christians, Muslims or otherwise, or those who see themselves as hyphenated Americans. This thesis also touches on the most important element of the case of Arab Americans post 9/11: through the demonization of race. This is apparent through the negative and catastrophic repercussions of the September events on the Arab-Islamic world and also on Arab Americans. Moreover, from the stereotyping of Arab Americans by the politicized American media. In addition, to seeing the level of roles and achievements played by the most important Arab American organizationsar
