ajiss-1548	Salaita, Steven	The Arab Americans: A History by Gregory Orfalea (New York: Olive Branch Press, 2006. 500 pages.)	2007.0	3	.pdf	application/pdf	966	37	43	Subsequent chapters explore a number of sociocultural and political issues of interest to the Arab-American community, including the politics of the Arab world, activism (historical and contemporary) in Arab America, the relationship between Arab Americans and the American government at both the local and federal levels, religious traditions in Arab America, and the instability and diversity of Arab-American identity. Other strengths include Orfalea’s personal knowledge of many of the issues and histories he examines, his humanization through engaging profiles of individuals sub- sisting within a widely stereotyped community, and his condemnation of draconian legislation targeted at Arab Americans and rationalized by an Arab presence in the United States.	cache/ajiss-1548.pdf	txt/ajiss-1548.txt
