| Abstract
|
:
|
This research examines how Islamophobia affects Muslim American community. It suggests that American Muslims face racial microaggressions in their day to day lives that cause anger. For this research I used a Racial Microaggression Scale (RMAS) and a demographic questionnaire to determine how American Muslims experienced discrimination. It also uses an Anger Scale as a pretest measure to understand the impact of racial microaggressions. As a therapeutic intervention I employ an Art Therapy technique – Anger Containment Box. To measure the effect of this technique I used the Anger Scale as a posttest. This research was conducted with 80 participants that varied in age. My research confirmed that American Muslims are experiencing racial microaggressions in their day to day lives. Contrary to my assumption the research findings indicated that the participants became angrier after the Art Therapy intervention.
