Understanding An American Paradox: An Overview Of The Racial Muslim: When Racism Quashes Religious Freedom, Spearit
Articles
In The Racial Muslim: When Racism Quashes Religious Freedom, Sahar Aziz unveils a mechanism that perpetuates the persecution of religion. While the book’s title suggests a problem that engulfs Muslims, it is not a new problem, but instead a recurring theme in American history. Aziz constructs a model that demonstrates how racialization of a religious group imposes racial characteristics on that group, imbuing it with racial stereotypes that effectively treat the group as a racial rather than religious group deserving of religious liberty.
In identifying a racialization process that effectively veils religious discrimination, Aziz’s book points to several important …

Civil Liberties Constraints On Tribal Sovereignty After The Indian Civil Rights Act Of 1968, Robert Berry
Civil Liberties Constraints On Tribal Sovereignty After The Indian Civil Rights Act Of 1968, Robert Berry
Librarian Publications
The Indian Civil Rights Act of 1968 provided a legislative answer to the question of whether, and to what extent, fundamental civil liberties recognized in constitutional law should constrain federally recognized Indian Tribes in the exercise of their sovereign powers.

Congress struck the balance between these two competing interests by drafting a bill of rights that reflected the particular circumstances of the tribes. The possibility of an appeal …

The trend in scholarship on the legal history of American racism, however, has been to place most of the blame for …
