Abstract
The article discusses the misconceptions and misidentification of Sikhs post-9/11, highlighting the discrimination and violence faced by the Sikh community in the United States. It emphasizes the importance of understanding Sikhism as a distinct religion with its own beliefs and practices, separate from Islam. The text also addresses the legal implications of misidentification, particularly in cases of discrimination and hate crimes, and advocates for measures such as hate crime tracking to support the fight for equity and recognition for Sikhs in America.
