Characteristics of Orientalism, Prejudice, and Discrimination

The difference between Muslims and Arabs consort to the Schaefer text is often being confused that they are the same Muslims are a type of spiritual mathematical group where as Arabs are a type of ethnic group. In the beginning of the text it describes and says that nigh Arab Americans are not Muslim and most Muslim Americans are not of Arab background. Within each group is a significant diversity that can be seen by differences in forms of religious expression, ancestral background, and recentness of arrival in the joined States (Axia College, 2006). A big factor when trying to see the differences between Arabs and Muslims is their religion, in the text it explains that Muslims relate closely to Christians religion wise because, they both worship the same god where Arabics worship their own god.Some of the changes that render been made by the United States for Muslims and Arabics is they have made jobs for many of them more available. Since September 11, 2001 many Americans hav e had a hard succession trusting Muslims and Arabics in return have treated them poorly. The United States has helped over the geezerhood to prove that not every single person in the Arabic and Muslim was involved or had anything to do with it. Over the years people have started to treat Arabics and Muslims better save it still has been hard for them to be accepted in the United States.Orientalism in coefficient of correlation to Arabics and Muslims has lead to sweeping unity within the societies. For many people in the United States, the mosque does not represent religious freedom and diversity or even a curiosity but a foreign threat in yet another example of Orientalism (Axia College, 2006). Some suggestions to help bring forward tolerance would be to recover to know people. People perceive others a certain way found on what is told to them about a certain person. We only see the bad that the Muslims and Arabics have done because of things that have happened in the past. A good suggestion would be to make community groups and get to know others, its always nice to get to know people and learn about things.
