Arab-Americans Say Feel Discrimination, Profiling
A poll of Arab-Americans released Thursday found that 21 percent reported experiencing discrimination since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The poll, conducted by Florida-based Bendixen & Associates, also said that 31 percent of Pakistani-Americans reported discrimination over the past three years. "Arab-Americans have experienced more discrimination and are over three times more likely than the non-Latino white population to have experienced racial profiling since the attacks," the survey found. In the poll, 11 percent of Arab-Americans said they felt they had been subject to racial profiling by authorities over the past three years, and 16 percent of Pakistanis reported such profiling. A 2002 study reported that three percent of whites perceived that they had been subject to racial profiling by officials, such as police, during their lives. [more
