Returning to the One: Postcolonial Muslim Liturgy

Arjana, Sophia Rose

Pages: 23 –31

[The “post” in postcolonial signifies a hope more than a reality. It is, in the words of Anne McClintock, a move that is “prematurely celebratory.”1 For example, the term “postcolonial” is often used to describe the southern regions of the Americas, despite the fact that the United States has...

Siwila, Lilian Cheelo

Rosa, Miriam

Pages: 107 –115

De-Evangelization of the Knees: Epistemology, Osteoporosis, and Affliction

Pereira, Nancy Cardoso

Pages: 119 –123

[I say without worrying that my body is tired of thinking from one place only. My head—heavy with loneliness—does not know the wise pieces of advice, the arrogant premises, or the brutal evidences of this difficult place. Those who wanted to cut me in pieces didn’t know what they were doing, or...
