UofT Islam In the City: Islam in the Post Colony
UofT Institute of Islamic Studies releases an issue of a publication each year called Islam In the City and this year the articles focused on living as a Muslim in a post-colonial world.
This special edition of Islam in the City was born out of a desire to understand Islamic identity and culture through a postcolonial lens as taught by Professor Nada Moumtaz at the Department for the Study of Religion. From exploring the influence of Islamic culture on the music of Hip Hop legends such as Mos Def, to dissecting the colonial legacies in Canada, this magazine opens the doors to understanding Islamic culture and its manifestations like never before. The visual theme of the magazine revolves around the feeling of limbo–an existence between two realities.
