Voices That Must be Heard was designed by the Independent Press Association staff in New York City in response to the horrifying events of September 11.  After Sept. 11th, Voices focused on the South Asian, Arab and Middle Eastern communities in New York. Since February 2002, the project has expanded, selecting articles from the broad range of ethnic and community newspapers throughout the city. Here, the Archive has preserved the Voices collection from its inception until November 2002.</text>

            <text>Long Island Pakistani family beaten badly; Muslim cleric attacked twice in September 11th anniversary hate crimes, by Mohsin Zaheer, Sada-e-Pakistan. 12 September, 2002. Translated from Urdu by Rehan Ansari. 

Americans are taking out their anger about September 11th, 2001, in Sept. 2002. Last weekend three white men beat up a mother and her 15-year-old son in Long Island. According to police, the attackers told the victims they were terrorists, responsible for the WTC collapse, and partners of Osama bin Laden. The attackers fled the scenetwo were later arrested. The police have called it a hate crime, and arrested two people in connection with it. 

Mahmooda Malik, 37, a restaurant owner, was walking home with her 15-year-old son Gibran around 11:45 p.m., when three young white males approached them and started taunting and screaming. 

Another group of men witnessing the event encouraged the attackers.

When Mahmooda screamed for help, her husband, who was closing up inside the 
restaurant, heard her and called the police. Before the police came, the attackers had fled. Three young men came by later to retrieve a pair of glasses. The family recognized them; police officers were still present and two men were arrested. They were later released on a bail of $100.

Maulana Shah Wazir Khan, of the Tehreeki Forum, was driving his yellow cab 
between 11:00 p.m. and midnight towards the Queensboro Bridge when motorcyclists surrounded his car. 

A motorcyclist, driving slowly in front of his cab, forced him to stop. Then two men and a woman pulled Khan from his car and beat him. A passing police patrol saw the incident and immediately intervened and arrested the attackers, and called an ambulance. 

Khan was discharged from the Bellevue Hospital the next morning.

Two weeks ago, Khan was attacked by three white men who got in his cab as passengers. Luckily for him, they began to attack while he was near a gas station; Khan was able to drive there and the attackers fled the cab.</text>
