Inclusion of a minority can double as disciplinary control over that minority

Evidence

The rejection of Terry Jones represented both a commitment to the Americanness of Dearborn’s Muslims, who deserved respect, and an acknowledgment of the (supposed) inability of (some) Muslims to accept certain kinds of free speech. Local Muslims were brought into an ecumenical, public rejection of religious bigotry, all the while being told, directly and indirectly, by Muslims and non-Muslims, that reactions of the Danish cartoon variety—physical attacks, threats, burnings in effigy, angry chants of “death to ___!”—would be counterproductive and would confirm what many Americans believe: that Muslims are irrational and intolerant. — Carl W.

Categorization

• XREF: Connects to the broader Foucault-derived idea of disciplinary power through benevolent inclusion, and to the reader’s comparative frame contrasting how each chapter dissects the horrified subject.
• QUESTION: Does the author (or other contributors) explicitly name this as a double bind — inclusion requiring self-discipline against anger? Worth tracing how ‘Americanness’ is offered as something to be earned through restraint.
