Muslim Atlantic’ issue of Critical Muslim

This issue of Critical Muslim considers the idea of a ‘Muslim Atlantic’ by looking at transatlantic connections between Muslims. Inspired by Paul Gilroy’s work on the ‘Black Atlantic’, the issue includes essays, photography, drama, and more on issues of race, gender, security, and popular culture.

Critical Muslim is a literary magazine edited by Ziauddin Sardar. The ‘Muslim Atlantic’ project co-investigators Daniel Nilsson DeHanas and Peter Mandaville served as guest curators for a portion of this issue.
