Graphic representations of women in the Egyptian revolution: An Arabyya research-art project with feminists in Cairo
Critical reflexión and plática∼testimonio/haki∼shahadat: Enacting decolonial praxis of solidarity from the Mexico-US borders to Palestine
In this plática, we share how we have deployed the methodologies of critical reflexión and plática ∼ testimonio/haki ∼ shahadat, which helped us enact a decolonial praxis of solidarity with intentional acts that grounded us in border thinking and opened the possibilities of creating an otherwise of love and harmony. We illustrate a praxis of solidarity stemming from our negotiation of differences, experiences of each other/beside each other in di…
Theorizing Knowledge With Pláticas: Moving Toward Transformative Qualitative Inquiries
In this article, we engaged in pláticas to write about the methodology of pláticas. We show the use of this method by theorizing the pláticas. Our pláticas helped us reveal how we have experienced epistemicide and apartheid of knowledge blocked by epistemological racism in academia.

Women Resisting Sexual Violence and the Egyptian Revolution: Arab Feminist Testimonies
Haki/pláticas ∼ testimonios/shahadat: Arabyya feminista decolonial praxis
The authors share how their Arabyyat and Chicana feminist pedagogies and methodologies, haki/pláticas ∼ testimonios/shahadat, contribute to a decolonial praxis. We center haki/pláticas ∼ testimonios/shahadat and introduce what we term as “Arabyya feminista decolonial praxis” in education as an act of linguistic and epistemic disobedience. Our work, pedagogies and methodologies, advance the esthetic dimensions of our Arabyya feminista praxis. We d…
Race, Gender and Sport: The Politics of Ethnic ‘Other’ Girls and Women
Anti-colonial critiques of sport mega-events
The paper reviews several theories about coloniality/modernity, Indigenous land, global securitisation and decolonial feminism in relation to sport mega-events. We use this special issue as an opportunity to reflect[1] which aspects of our own research may have been decolonial, and what is more accurately described as anti-colonial or anti-settlercolonial critique. In this paper, we review four different decolonial theories – coloniality/modernit…

This article examines the masculinities of Ultras football fans during and after the January 25th Egyptian revolution, within the interlocking systems of power of neoliberalism, militarism and Islamism. The Ultras' anti-corporate masculinities were strengthened through protests against satellite TV and the Egyptian Football Association, while they also developed anti-militarist masculinities as they protested business elites, Supreme Council of t…
Deveiling body stories: Muslim girls negotiate visual, spatial, and ethical hijabs
This article describes a collaborative research project that took place in two south‐western US border towns and sought to understand how four muslim 1 1. Throughout this paper, I alternate between using Muslim and muslim as analytical and political categories useful in ‘counter‐hegemonic struggles’ but also helpful in acknowledging ‘the fluidity of cultural expressions, especially of those in the diasporic communities’ (Khan 2002 Khan, S. 2002. …

We worked with 11 girls in two elementary schools in southwestern United States. Data were collected over the 2005–2006 school year. Data sources included (a)…
Gaining research access into the lives of Muslim girls: Researchers negotiating muslimness , modesty, inshallah , and haram
This paper explores the process of gaining research access into the lives of Muslim girls in the southwest USA. We discuss four emerging ‘entry markers’ that challenged the process of gaining and sustaining access over a period of 14 months. These included being Muslim enough, being modest enough, inshallah (Allah or God willing), and haram (forbidden). Additionally, we reflect on (1) how one researcher identified the four ‘entry markers’; (2) ho…
