| Abstract | The global pandemic and the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody have rocked the nation and exposed its deep-seated inequalities and racism. The rebellion in the streets is a justified response to health disparities, racism, white supremacy, and police violence. Across the country, students--especially Black students, Indigenous students, and other students of color--are outraged and are demanding that universities and colleges make changes to address systemic racial injustice. Arab American college students, like their Black peers, have faced a history of othering, discrimination, and profiling that can lead to psychological distress and exacerbate existing psychological disorders. Anti-Arab and Islamophobic foreign and domestic policies like the global war on terrorism, the Muslim travel ban, mass surveillance, and federally funded racial profiling negatively affect Arab Americans and can impede students' ability to succeed socially, academically, and personally. Administrators, faculty members, counselors, and other campus leaders must rise to the occasion to offer Arab American and Black, Indigenous, and other students of color a safe and affirming community. To do this, they must ensure that campus mental health specialists can effectively serve all student populations--and that means understanding how the political and social climate, among other issues, affects each of them. The author, a counselor who identifies as Arab American, discusses how campus counselors can prepare to effectively engage with Arab American students. (ERIC). |
