Personal Stories from the Post-9/11 Era Excerpt 1
60-year-old Pakistani restaurant worker:
“In 2002, I was arrested by the FBI and ICE authorities upon returning home from work. I went through hell with five nights of questioning. They asked me about my [religious] affiliation or knowledge of terrorism. They asked me if I [had] any knowledge of [the] planning [for] the September 11th attacks. I had no clue why they were asking me these questions. When I refused to spy on my community and falsely accuse others, I was locked up in a detention center for six months.”
