Community Engagement

My recent community engagement activities have been aimed at creating more inclusive spaces for QTN Muslims in dominant Muslim and LGBTQ organizations.

One notable example is my involvement in a project, led by the ArQuives and supported by Salaam Canada, that aims to collect archival materials from Queer Trans and Nonbinary Muslim Organizations across the country and to create an online exhibit exploring QTN Muslim Canadian histories.

Public Engagement

Our podcast, inSearch, promotes the production and dissemination of knowledge across multiple disciplines and interdisciplinary fields. Its primary aim is to create bridges between academic research and public audiences.

In a recent interview, I explained my decision to nominate El-Farouk Khaki to be inducted to the ArQuives’ National Portrait Collection. The National Portrait Collection commemorates individuals who have meaningfully contributed to Canada’s LGBTQ populations.
