Report on Hate Crimes & Discrimination against Arab Americans, 1996-97. Corp Author(s): American Arab Anti Discrimination Committee, Washington, DC

Examples of hate crimes against Arab Americans in this report are those that were reported to the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC), but the actual number of hate crimes and incidents of discrimination far exceeds those reported. As the report shows, Arab American civil rights were increasingly threatened in 1996-97 by the Anti-Terrorism Act, which allows the use of secret evidence against individuals accused of supporting terrorist organizations.
