The Incident Ariel Castro the 53 year old former school bus driver who abducted and held three young girls captive for 10 years was sentenced to life in prison plus 1,000 years as reported on CNN (Brown and McLaughlin). Three young women between the ages of 14 and 21 went missing a year apart from one another in a small “tight-knit community” in Cleveland (Donaghue).

One particularly striking observation made by Abu-Laban & Nath (2007) is that the selective attribution of citizenship status generally worked to deny the systematic racialized nature of the government’s actions in Arar’s case (pp.86, 88 & 91). While this removal of racialized rhetoric certainly in itself is problematic, I wonder if it is even more costly in depriving society of an opportunity to discuss the issues surrounding broader securitization policies. This article also raised the difficulties in resolving the conflicting mandates of multiculturalism and a culture of suspicion that permeates more than the mentalities of law-enforcement (Abu-Laban & Nation, 2007, pp.74 & 78). This reminds me of Gilbert’s (2007) assertion that “while multiculturalism has been perceived as a security risk, the new security agenda is also a risk for multiculturalism” (p.28). Yet, the question remains as to how to navigate the proper balance between the two, or whether these two concepts can simply not
