The document 'Compulsory Whiteness: Towards a Middle Eastern Legal Scholarship' by John Tehranian explores the ambiguous racial status of individuals of Middle Eastern descent in the United States. It discusses how these individuals are legally classified as white, which excludes them from affirmative action and other minority protections, despite facing significant discrimination and prejudice. The article highlights the historical context of racial classification, the impact of post-9/11 sentiments on perceptions of Middle Easterners, and calls for a distinct recognition of their identity within legal scholarship to address ongoing civil rights issues.
