Unheard Voices of 9/11

Members of the Muslim, Sikh, South Asian, and Arab American communities were twice victims of 9/11. Like all Americans we endured a horrific attack on our country by terrorists. We also continue to endure troubling attacks from fellow Americans in the form of hate crimes, employment discrimination, school bullying, profiling and other forms of discrimination.

These stories of discrimination have largely been unheard. This website is meant to give these unheard voices a voice. These are the stories of our community members unfiltered, in their own words. These are the unheard voices of 9/11.

This project --- both the website and 9/11 community hearings in New York City and the San Francisco Bay Area --- has been made possible through the generous support of the Security & Rights Collaborative, a Proteus Fund Initiative, Open Society Institute - National Security and Human Rights Campaign and through individual contributions from the Sikh American Community

As the 10-year anniversary of September 11th approaches, the Sikh Coalition organized a Community hearing on 20 August. This hearing was on the discriminatory impact of 9/11 on Muslims, Arabs, South Asians, and Sikhs in New York City.
