It centres on and explores a number of themes, which include her challenges not only as a South African citizen, and within her faith community, but as an academic citizen at a historically white university. The book is her story, an autoethnography, her reparation. By embarking on an auto-ethnography, she not only tries to change the way her story has been told by others, transforms her 'sense of what it means to live' (Bhabha, 1994). She is driven by a postcolonial appeal, which insists that if she seeks to imprint her own way of life into the discourses which pervade the world around her, then she can no longer allow herself to be spoken on behalf of or to be subjugated into the hegemonies of others. The main argument of Out of Place is that Muslim, 'coloured' women are subjected to layers of scrutiny and prejudices, which have yet to be confronted. What we know about Muslim 'coloured' women has been shaped by preconceived notions of 'otherness', and attached to a meta-narrative of 'oppression and backwardness'. By centring and using her lived experiences, the author takes readers on a journey of what it is like to be seen in terms of race, gender and religion - not only within the public sphere of her professional identities, but within the private sphere of her faith community. 606 $aMuslim women$zSouth Africa$vBiography 606 $aCitizenship$zSouth Africa$vBiography 606 $aPostcolonialism 606 $aWomen in Islam$zSouth Africa$vBiography 610 $aPhilosophers 610 $aBiography & Autobiography 615 0$aMuslim women 615 0$aCitizenship 615 0$aPostcolonialism. 615 0$aWomen in Islam 676 $a305.48697092 700 $aDavids$b Nuraan$0897716 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910585984003321 996 $aOut of Place$92918828 997 $aUNINA
