Using (Counter)stories to (Re)shape Our Communities and World(s)
Eljaji, Amanah
LEARNing Landscapes, v14 n1 p67-81 Spr 2021
Drawing upon my experience as a Canadian Muslim woman, scholar, educator, and mother, I share and inquire into my stories of experiences alongside youth. Thinking narratively, I weave my experiences using and teaching with/about single stories and counterstories alongside students to (re)shape the multiplicity of our selves, relationships, and communities. This article will provide windows, mirrors, and sliding glass doors into my school and familial curriculum-making experiences alongside Muslim youth. I hope that it will also provide insights into the experiences of diverse Muslim children, youth, and caregivers/families.
