Terror-related arrests target not only Arabs but whites, Latinos, and African Americans.

Evidence

The contemporary Muslim in the U.S. is, first, what Nadine Naber (2000, 2006) has referred to as the ”Arab–Middle Eastern Muslim,” a conflation of Arab Americans with Muslims but also, significantly, with South Asian Americans and others, as is evident in so-called terrorismrelated arrests in the U.S. of whites, Latinos, and African Americans. For the latter two groups, race and racialized religion present a double threat. — Junaid Rana, Terrifying Muslims, 221
