Racial Ambiguity and Religious Vulnerability in Late Nineteenth- to Mid-Twentieth-century Iran
Scholars of Iranian history have begun turning their attention to the presence of enslaved Africans in Iran. The history of Africans and racial categories and identities has emerged in academic literature as a topic worthy of study. 1 While there is much yet to be learned, we can recognize now that enslaved Africans in Iran were able to maintain their own religious ceremonies, speak their own Persian dialect, perform their own musical styles and …
The indirect effect of emotion regulation on the association between adverse childhood experiences and food addiction
Gender and race differences in weight discrimination's relationship to psychological distress and eating behavior
Stigma and discrimination against people higher in weight is common in the U.S. and understanding weight stigma's consequences for different individuals is important. In this study, Black ( N = 290) and White ( N = 449) men and women who perceived themselves to be "overweight" completed self-report measures of perceived weight discrimination, emotion regulation, psychological distress, and eating behavior. Results showed gender differences among …
A Bābī Theology in Poetry
Tāhirih, also known as Qurratu'l-'Ayn (1814-1852), was one of the leading disciples of the Bāb (1819-1844), Sayyid 'Alī-Muhammad of Shiraz, the founder of Babism. She was formally educated in Islamic learning and theology, but relied heavily on inspiration for some of her most radical doctrines. Her poems contain radical theological pronouncements that would propel the Bābī movement beyond Islam. By no means typical or representative of other Bāb…

Ziba Khanum of Yazd
Ziba Khanum (d. 1932) was, an African woman, a slave in the city of Yazd in the second half of the nineteenth century. She bore her master a son who, in accordance with Islamic law, should have inherited part of his father’s wealth but did not. Although she is subaltern, information about her life and the life of her son, Ghulam ‘Ali Siyah, can be recovered from family oral histories. The son, an Afro-Iranian merchant, converted to the Baha’i rel…
Africans in the Palace
Historians of African history estimate that between one and two million enslaved Africans were exported from the East Coast of Africa into the Indian Ocean slave trade during the nineteenth century to Arabia, Iran, India, and further east. But, the history of Africans in the Indian Ocean Diaspora is almost unknown. This chapter attempts to begin an historical exploration of a particular population of African women, those enslaved in the court of …
Racial Differences in the Associations of Posttraumatic Stress and Insomnia With Body Mass Index Among Trauma-Exposed Veterans
Posttraumatic stress is associated with increased body mass index (BMI) and rates of obesity. Black adults are at greater risk for obesity, trauma exposure, development of posttraumatic stress disorder, and comorbid sleep problems compared to White adults. Accordingly, Black adults with a history of trauma exposure may be at greater risk for elevated BMI associated with posttraumatic stress and insomnia. Multiple linear regression was used to exa…
Barriers and facilitators of obesity management in families of youth with emotional and behavioral disorders
While youth with emotional and behavioral disorders experience increased rates of obesity, few obesity interventions exist that are tailored to their needs. Qualitative methods were employed to elucidate obesity management practices in this population. In all, 56 participants (i.e. 21 youths with emotional and behavioral disorders, 20 caregivers of youth with emotional and behavioral disorders, and 15 mental health providers) were recruited from …
Self-Efficacy and Hemoglobin A1C Among Adults With Serious Mental Illness and Type 2 Diabetes
BACKGROUND: Self-efficacy is a core element of diabetes self-care and a primary target of diabetes interventions. Adults with serious mental illness (SMI) are twice as likely as adults among the general population to have Type 2 diabetes. This population faces substantial barriers (i.e., cognitive impairment, psychiatric symptoms) to optimal diabetes self-care, but the relationship of these barriers to both self-efficacy and glycemic control (hem…

Barriers and Facilitators of a Healthy Lifestyle Among Persons with Serious and Persistent Mental Illness
Underground Movement in a Missionary Church
Today about one million Baha'is live in Africa. The Baha'i Faith was introduced to the British Cameroons in the early 1950s and spread as a new movement within the networks of the Basel Mission, a Swiss Presbyterian missionary society. Enoch Olinga, an educated African convert from Uganda, was able to act at the centre of the movement without outside supervision and invent new forms of Baha'i identity. His successes are examined, as well as the r…
Enslaved African Women in Nineteenth-Century Iran
Fezzeh Khanom (c. 1835–82), an African woman, was a slave of Sayyed ‘Ali-Mohammad of Shiraz, the Bab. Information about her life can be recovered from various pious Baha'i histories. She was honored, and even venerated by Babis, though she remained subordinate and invisible. The paper makes the encouraging discovery that a history of African slavery in Iran is possible, even at the level of individual biographies. Scholars estimate that between o…
