1. I would like you to FIRST, read the Huffington Article entitled “Developing Identity as a Muslim Immigrant Woman in America”, which you find in this week’s assignment folder and formulate a focused and precise question that captures the issue/s raised and the article and answer your question with a thesis statement (this is a good preparation for the final exam). SECOND, briefly EXPLAIN your question and support your thesis statement by drawing on the Hall and Vertovec readings on the formation of identity. The objective of this week’s assignment is to foster your understanding of how difference based on the formation of identities are constructed on the level of politics but also in people’s everyday life. Moreover, it encourages you to think about how immigrants make use of the “transnational flow of images, practices, discourses and perspectives [which] can have profound effect on people’s identities vis-a -vis both local and global settings” (Vertovec p. 580)
