The Invisible Muslim : Journeys Through Whiteness and Islam, Paperback / softback Book

The Invisible Muslim : Journeys Through Whiteness and Islam Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Medina Tenour Whiteman stands at the margins of whiteness and Islam.

An Anglo-American born to Sufi converts, she feels perennially out of place—not fully at home in Western or Muslim cultures. In this searingly honest memoir, Whiteman contemplates what it means to be an invisible Muslim, examining the pernicious effects of white Muslim privilege and exploring what Muslim identity can mean the world over—in lands of religious diversity and cultural insularity, from Andalusia, Bosnia and Turkey to Zanzibar, India and Iran. Through her travels, she unearths experiences familiar to both Western Muslims and anyone of mixed heritage: a life-long search for belonging and the joys and crises of inhabiting more than one identity.
