Reviews

'A passionate plea for a spiritual decolonial movement. Mohammed Abdou advances a vision of Islam that is abolitionist at its core, reminding us that Islam has been and can still be a religion of the oppressed, one that is anti-capitalist, egalitarian, anti-ableist, anti-patriarchal, queer feminist and for Muslims and non-Muslims alike' -- Sherene H. Razack, Distinguished Professor and Penny Kanner Endowed Chair, Gender Studies, UCLA


Author Information

Mohamed Abdou is a self-identifying Muslim anarchist activist-scholar and diasporic settler of colour, living on unseeded Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee territory. His twenty years of activist research experience centres on Palestinian, Black, and people of colour liberation, and draws on his experiences with the Mohawks of Tyendinaga, the Indigenous Zapatista movement in Chiapas, Mexico, and participation in the Egyptian uprisings of 2011. He is a former Adjunct professor of Arab and Islamic social movements at Queen's University who completed his transnational and interdisciplinary ethnographic and historical-archival PhD on Islam & Queer-Muslims: Identity, Gender, Sexuality, and Politics in the Contemporary.
