Opis

This collection brings together scholars from education, literary and cultural studies, and Muslim women’s studies to examine the politics and ethics of transnational anti-colonial reading practices and pedagogy. The book features interviews with Muslim women artists and cultural producers on the role of the arts as a form of critical public pedagogy.

Recenzje

"This volume unites reflection and action for transformational pedagogy. By teaching readers to recognize negative stereotypes about Muslim women and exposing complicity ith imperialism in some uncritical forms of multiculturalism, these essays make a significant contribution to social justice education."— Kathleen D. McCallie, Phillips Theological Seminary
