Over a decade ago, I took classes on the Middle East at Duke that inspired me. This fall, one of my students, whose honors thesis on hip-hop in Morocco I had the honor to advise at Dartmouth, will enroll in a Ph.D. program in Cultural Anthropology at Duke. A full circle moment.

If you’re a scholar eager to reach a wider audience with your research, this @PhantomPod episode with @mactra and @JaneatRandom on finding an agent and writing for a general readership might be of interest! 🎧open.spotify.com/episode/5OU5yR…
To have a scholar, whose work you admire, engage with your book is a gift. Alf shukr, @andrealstanton! Your words moved me. "This is a history of the ordinary, the everyday, and the everyone - and that is its power...The book is also a love letter to Sur al-Ezbekiyya..." 🥹
An event on cinema in the Arab world, featuring Ifdal Elsaket, taking place tomorrow through Cinematheque Beirut.
This talk on the history of house in Chicago the other day @dartmouthartsci was tremendous. Moving from Beyoncé's "Renaissance" to Disco Demolition Night, april l. graham-jackson highlighted the importance of oral history and taking a multi-sensory approach to the past. 🎶
The latest issue of IJMES is out! Everything from a roundtable on the politics of ethnography in Turkey to reviews of the latest books on "other archives" in Morocco and the afterlife of al-Andalus feature. cambridge.org/core/journals/…
The latest issue of @meriponline, which centers on Sudan, is now available. To access it: merip.org/magazine/310/
A talk taking place @CEDEJ_Egypte next week with Omnia El Shakry. To attend on Zoom, register here: cnrs.zoom.us/meeting/regist…
Ahmad Adawiya, Shaykh Imam, and Hassan al-Asmar all surface on this modern Egypt mixtape. A thousand thanks to the @OttomanHistory podcast for taking an interest in this story! To appear on the same episode as a mentor of mine, Ziad Fahmy, is special. open.spotify.com/episode/2pLKun…
Nothing like new @stanfordpress titles on a Thursday! Can’t wait to dive into these promising books on the horizon. #MiddleEastStudies
Boston friends, if you'll be in town this Wednesday it would be wonderful to see you at @HarvardCMES, where I'll be sharing some aspects of Egypt's cassette culture. Many thanks to Rosie Bsheer, the author of the brilliant "Archive Wars," for the invitation to do so. 🎶
Iman Mersal’s “Traces of Enayat” is now available in English, and reading about this story’s origins, a serendipitous discovery at a Cairo book market, has me missing Sur al-Ezbekiyya. nytimes.com/2024/03/31/boo…
A Monday morning mixtape, curated by @afikra, containing sounds from Sudan 🎶. yezyvp.clicks.mlsend.com/tf/cl/eyJ2Ijoi…
Physical media in the age of streaming services. This @guardian feature focuses on DVDs, but the same may be said of vinyl records and cassettes, making digital archives that preserve and popularize cultural productions past all the more important now. amp.theguardian.com/film/2024/mar/…
This is a novel not to be missed. I first encountered Aisha’s writing in graduate school and was blown away by it. Seeing “Between Two Moons” now in print years later, a story set in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn against the backdrop of Ramadan, is beyond exciting. 📚
A history of Habibi Funk and old Arabic records that become new again. messynessychic.com/2024/03/21/hav…
"In Cairo, where electronic music was invented, El Shazly’s music goes back to the future." It's an honor to see "Media of the Masses" cited in this new @4_columns feature by @geetadayal on @NadahElShazly, an artist who is redefining experimental music.🎶 4columns.org/dayal-geeta/na…
In this brilliant new episode of @afikra, @MKraidy reflects on Turkish television dramas, “south-south” circuits of cultural exchange, and changing media landscapes in the Arab World. It is worth a listen! 🎧open.spotify.com/episode/0aRpkV…
A sneak peek at a review essay, which I had the pleasure to facilitate, on the end of the Ottoman Empire that will soon appear in IJMES. #MiddleEastStudies
