Table of ContentsReviews"""Kenza Oumlil’s book is a compelling interdisciplinary analysis of gender and cultural representations of Muslim diasporic communities in North America. The text orchestrates an intellectual dialogue between U.S. black feminists and Muslim diasporic artists, providing a prescient intersectional framework with which to discuss issues of identity and self-representation. Oumlil makes a perceptive intervention that exposes the hegemonic cultural apparatus while also highlighting alternative aesthetic practices that challenge and subvert it."" Ella Shohat, author of Taboo Memories, Diasporic Voices ""Can Muslim women represent themselves? Kenza Oumlil’s North American Muslim Women Artists Talk Back: Assertions of Unintelligibility is the sustained record of her critical reflections on this vital question. The result is a pathbreaking momentum in rearticulatig the possibilities of constructing discourses of resistance to domination—a focussed and deeply satisfying read."" Hamid Dabashi, author of Contemporary Art, World Cinema, and Visual Culture: Essays by Hamid Dabashi ""North American Muslim Women Artists Talk Back describes an infiltration. Artists creep up on the mainstream, ambush and unsettle what they can, when they can. Oumlil shows us that the mainstream is no easy place for Muslim women artists to navigate. Riding with them through the currents of patriarchy and white supremacy will fill us with wonder. We will gasp and laugh and shake our heads in dismay and it will all be worth it."" Sherene H. Razack, author of Casting Out: The Eviction of Muslims from Western Law and Politics and Nothing Has to make Sense, Anti-Muslim Racism, White Supremacy and Law."
