In recent years, significant research on Islamophobia has created an important literature about anti-Islamic and anti-Muslim discourses in the United States. However, the term 'Islamophobia' has come to refer to racialized bigotry, discrimination, policies and practices directed towards a range of groups, Muslim and otherwise. Love establishes racial formation as a conceptual framework for understanding Islamophobia in the United States, beginning with an examination of the linked and racialized history of American communities with ancestry in North Africa and southwestern Asia, that is, Middle Eastern Americans. He then explores the roots of Islamophobic discourses in the United States in terms of popular culture stereotypes, discriminatory state actions and bigotry, including hate crimes. This leads to a discussion of anti-Islamophobia civil rights activism situated within the historical context of organizational responses to racialized discrimination in the United States. The analysis shows that it remains unclear whether diverse and historically divergent Middle Eastern American communities will remain divided along national-origin, religious, cultural and class lines. Taking historical models of advocacy into account, Love suggests three likely avenues for advocacy organizations that confront Islamophobia in the United States.

Notes 1Edward Said, 'The imperial bluster of Tom Delay', Counterpunch, 20 August 2003, available at www.counterpunch.org/said08202003.html (viewed 12 May 2009). 2Michael Ellison, 'Sikh shot dead in US "retaliation" attack', Guardian, 17 September 2001, 10. 3Despite the term's offensive colonialist origins, for want of a better alternative, for brevity's sake and in part because it reflects the contemporary mainstream American definition, the term 'Middle East' will be used in this article to refer to Northern Africa and Southwestern Asia, and 'Middle Eastern Americans' can be defined as members of the diverse groups of immigrants and their descendants who identify with or trace their heritage to those regions. 4Although surveys provide conflicting numbers, it appears that South Asians constitute the largest subgroup among Muslim Americans. Most studies indicate that the majority of Arab Americans are non-Muslims, but this may have changed over the past decade.
