Product Information

'Nothing will ever be the same again'. This was the sentiment that many Americans expressed after the atrocities of 9/11. But what remains the same, argues Jack Shaheen, is Hollywood's stereotyping of Arabs.In his previous, best-selling book Reel Bad Arabs - written before 9/11 - Shaheen showed that Hollywood often equated Arabs and Muslims with violence, and used them as shorthand for the 'enemy.' In Guilty , he shows that the same stereotypes are still being used. Nearly all of Hollywood's post-9/11 films legitimize the view of Arabs as villainous sheikhs, or murderous terrorists - even when the films themselves have nothing to do with the Middle East.This volume also addresses the cultural issues at play since 9/11, and suggests that winning the 'War on Terror' can only happen when the centuries-old stereotypes of Arabs are shattered.
