Search tips:

Using AND between different terms limits your search to key terms in your topic. These searches can be narrowed even further with the addition of AND with another term, such as (American muslims or muslim americans) AND identity AND women. Each time you add a word with AND, there will be fewer articles in the results.

Using OR between similar terms assures that you find different variations of the same or similar concepts.
