Muslim Americans still face hostility 20 years after 9/11

A car passed, the driver's window rolled down and a man hurled an epithet at the two young girls wearing hijabs: "Terrorist!" 

It was 2001, just weeks after the twin towers at the World Trade Center fell, and 10-year-old Shahana Hanif and her sister were walking to the local mosque in Brooklyn, New York. Frightened, they ran. Hanif, now 30, can still recall the shock of the moment, her confusion over how anyone could look at her, a child, and see a threat. "It's not a nice, kind word," she said. "It means violence, it means dangerous. It is meant to shock whoever is on the receiving end of it."
