Description

For Muslims to project themselves into the future is a radical act in a world where the lives of Muslims and those perceived to be Muslims are threatened. your book. Shaping Muslim Futures: Youth Visions and Activist Praxis, amplifies the counternarratives of activist Muslim youth situated in Toronto, Canada, shaping their desired futures for themselves, their families and communities. Drawing on intensive life history interviews, Shaping Muslim Futures offers a rich account of learning experiences that raised their critical awareness of the world and of their critical reflection and action upon the world to transform it. Through their counternarratives, we explore sites of learning including families, neighbourhoods, secular and faith-based schools, and Hip Hop cultures; and Sites of reflection and action, including advocating with and for other racialized youth living in social housing; creating safer spaces for Muslim girls and young women; building public awareness campaigns for Muslim and other racialized and criminalized communities about racial profiling, police brutality and state surveillance; and writing and performing counternarratives through spoken iword poetry. Woven together, the voices and stories reveal what the activist Muslim youth can teach us about worldbuilding. Written for Muslim and other racialized youth, and anyone engaged in shaping futures where Muslim and other racialized youth are thriving, this (guide)book invites readers to imagine and practice living into the futures we want as though they exist in the present.
