This book answers this question by presenting the counter-narratives of 15 young women. These accounts debunk prevalent stereotypes and biases, and reveal an educational climate marked by Islamophobia. Through these overall educational experiences, readers are able to explore the role of family, faith-based education, the mosque, and community in these women’s lives.    The social and academic learning opportunities showcase instances of both inclusion and marginalization which lead students to experience a double consciousness. What this study ultimately shows is that these students experience the dichotomous pull of religious and cultural values as they navigate their intersectional identities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments    Introduction   1 Critical Race Theory and Racialization   2 Tenets \u0026amp; Application of Critical Race Theory   3 Offf-shoots of Critical Race Theory   4 Racialization of Religious Identity   5 From CRT to MusCrit   6 Tenets of MusCrit   7 From Theoretical Framework to Methodology   8 The Use of Narrative Research   9 The Stories Ahead    1 Rahmah’s Story   1 Framing Identity   2 Finding Friends in Diverse Spaces   3 Experience of Demonization    2 Deena’s Story   1 Navigating Identity   2 Treading Carefully    3 Hafsa’s Story   1 Informal \u0026amp; Formal Educational Experiences   2 Difffijiculty in Transition to High School   3 The Strengthening Role of the Community   4 The Role of Parents and Acculturation   5 Defijining American and Intersectionality   6 Connection to Curriculum   7 Interactions with Teachers and Microaggressions    4 Rania’s Story   1 Hijab \u0026amp; Identity   2 Influences on Identity   3 Uncomfortable Interactions    5 Mehar’s Story   1 Relationship with Her Hijab   2 Sense of Community   3 Questions of Identity   4 Early Experiences in America   5 Uncomfortable Interactions    6 Amber’s Story   1 Defijining Self, Race, and Ethnicity   2 Finding Strength in Diversity   3 Parents and Acculturation   4 Values    7 Selma’s Story   1 School   2 Transitioning to College   3 Choosing to Wear the Hijab    8 Rida’s Story   1 The Role of School   2 Defijining Self, Race, and Popular Culture   3 Anxiety about Transitioning to College   4 Impact of Religious Values   5 The Strengthening Role of Family    9 Layla’s Story   1 Navigating Identity   2 Educational Journeys   3 Classroom Conversations   4 Relationship with Hijab   5 Religion as Lifestyle    10 Samreen’s Story   1 Being Impacted: School and Family   2 Being American   3 Uncomfortable Conversations    11 Yasmine’s Story   1 Acculturation   2 Values   3 Curriculum   4 Experience of Demonization    12 Ayesha’s Story   1 Influence of School   2 Values Shaped in the Home   3 College Experience   4 Defending the Faith    13 Fatima’s Story   1 Culture \u0026amp; Identity   2 Identity \u0026amp; Educational Experience   3 Diminishing Experiences    14 Sana’s Story   1 Critical Conversations \u0026amp; Representing Islam   2 Extra-curriculars and Identity   3 Being Enough    15 Farah’s Story   1 Impact of Culture and Faith   2 Learning from School   3 Discussing 9\/11   4 Contemplating Identity    MusCrit in Action   Conclusion   References  Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210847347031,"sku":"9789004519237","price":85.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/counter-narratives-of-muslim-american-women-creating-space-for-muscrit-9789004519237","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
