The Dream House of American Culture: Archives of the Self, Visions of the Future by Myrto Drizou

“… In this essay, I argue that American literature and culture help students draw more expansive geographies of their selves and more articulate narratives of their experiences. Using Carmen Maria Machado’s memoir In the Dream House as an example, I show how students are empowered to make meaningful connections between the personal and the political, and how they are encouraged to reflect on their “home” identities, especially with regard to race, class, sexuality, and gender. …”

Islam, Muslims, and the Coloniality of Being: Reframing the Debate on Race and Religion in Modernity by Iskander Abbasi

“… This article aims to more thoroughly intersect the figure of the Muslim into the framework of the coloniality of being, and into the narrative of race and religion in modernity.
