How it's all been brought back home to Main Street

Rageh Omaar tours through the American heartlands and finds a country
preoccupied with the war on terror

The Observer
Set in the heartland of a nation made of peoples of extraordinary
diversity, the town of Dubuque in Iowa feels strangely reminiscent of
the most rural and conservative counties of middle England. There was
that familiar and almost immediate feeling of being one of the only
black people on the streets of this unassuming, quietly humble and
very white town. The state of Iowa is around 90 per cent white. The
porches of the clapboard houses are lined with gold and crimson
autumnal leaves, fat Halloween pumpkins and on the front lawns of
almost every house flutters a star-spangled banner.
