Abstract | In this article, [the author] shares her research on how a group of Palestinian American high school youth understand themselves as members of the U.S. community, of the Palestinian American community, and of communities in Palestine. She argues that, for these youth, coming to terms with who they are has a great deal to do both with how they view themselves and how Palestinian Americans are viewed in the imagined community of the United States, especially after September 11, 2001. Her research reports on the tensions these youth face as they deal with school issues, like pledging allegiance to the U.S. flag, teacher harassment, and disciplinary sanctions related to being framed as "terrorists", that affect how they think about citizenship and belonging. Given the complex way these and other youth experience belonging, [the author] ends with a call for a greater commitment to, and a more nuanced understanding of, citizenship education.
