This Muslim American Life: Dispatches from the War on Terror
Winner of the 2016 Evelyn Shakir Non-Fiction Arab American Book Award
Over the last few years, Moustafa Bayoumi has been an extra in Sex and the City 2 playing a generic Arab, a terrorist suspect (or at least his namesake “Mustafa Bayoumi†was) in a detective novel, the subject of a trumped-up controversy because a book he had written was seen by right-wing media as pushing an “anti-American, pro-Islam†agenda, and was asked by a U.S. citizenship officer to drop his middle name of Mohamed.
