Atiya Husain traces the historical roots of racialized policing from nineteenth-century anthropometry and the concept of the "average man" to contemporary uses of "wanted" posters and the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorists list, highlighting how racial and religious identities—particularly Blackness and Islam—are constructed and contested within these frameworks. The book critically examines the complexities of Muslim racialization, Black liberation politics, and the limits of antiracist discourse, while also engaging with broader geopolitical issues such as the US-backed genocide in Gaza. Husain ultimately calls for a political project that reimagines the figure of "man" beyond racialized and religious categories, emphasizing the ongoing entanglement of race, religion, and state power in shaping knowledge and repression. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Religious Studies Review (John Wiley & Sons, Inc.) is the property of John Wiley & Sons, Inc. and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
