TO MARK THE FIVE YEARS SINCE 9/11, we've chosen two stories that reflect the good and the bad of these times. One is about the federal government's ongoing targeting of Islamic social service agencies and charity foundations. The other story is of a Muslim community leader who's now a newspaper publisher taking on racism in Texas and across the country.

We've also picked three new books that are asking the right questions about a post-9/11 climate, and we talk to a novelist who's using young-adult fiction to address themes of race and immigration.
