We Are All Suspects Now: Untold Stories from Immigrant Communities after 9/11 by Tram Nguyen, foreword by Edwidge Danticat [in AsianWeek]
Award-winning Haitian American writer Danticat opens this sobering title with the death of her 81-year-old uncle who fled his native land when his life was threatened, only to die shackled to a hospital ward in Miami, inexplicably treated as a hardened criminal. Nguyen, executive editor of Colorlines magazine, bears witness to the innocent who have suffered without cause, who have suffered in anonymity – all in the name of this so-called war on terror.
