Guilty: Hollywood's Verdict on Arabs after 9/11

Guilty: Hollywood's Verdict on Arabs after 9/11

Shaheen shows that post-9/11 American cinema is still making the same old equation between Muslims and Arabs and violence, using them as a shorthand for 'enemy'. He also addresses various cultural issues, arguing that the 'War on Terror' can only be won when centuries-old stereotypes of Arabs are shattered.
