We are delighted that Amanda Lubit will present her new book "Life as a Migrant Muslim Woman in Sectarian Northern Ireland: An Exploration of Gender, Visibility, Movement and Placemaking".
About the book: The lives of migrant Muslim women in divided, post-conflict Northern Ireland, both before and during the pandemic, are full of diverse stories and experiences of belonging. This book explores how women strive to belong and create a home despite pervasive hatred, sexism and racism. Under these circumstances, women employ various strategies to connect with people and places around them. Using personal stories, this book considers the relationships migrant Muslim women develop, the places they spend time and the activities they engage with. These stories are used to demonstrate the interconnectedness of gender, visibility, movement and placemaking as analytical concepts.
The book is has been published in April 2025 by Berghahn Books. It is available open access: https://www.berghahnbooks.com/title/LubitLife
