Manal Hamzeh's book, Pedagogies of deveiling: muslim girls & the hijab discourse, presents anexploration of a gendering discourse, the hijab (veil) discourse, and how it was negotiated by four girls whoself-identified as muslims. Pedagogies of deveiling emerged over a period of three years writing up a 14months long study in which Hamzeh collaborated with four muslim girls in two US southwestern border townsbetween October 2005 and December 2006. This book stems from the stories of these four muslim girlsweaved with Hamzeh's stories and perspectives as arabyyah-muslimah, the main researcher in the study-an"insider/in-betweener" educator/researcher who is literate in the cultural/linguistic/historical nuances critical inworking with Muslim girls and their communities.Pedagogies of deveiling offers an alternative approach to research and pedagogy with muslim girls in which the taken-for-granted hijabs in the sacredtext and their inscriptions on the bodies of these girls are deveiled, or problematized, rethought, questioned, and countered. As such, what this bookoffers is first critical to muslim girls themselves because it shatters the phobia and the impossibility of reinterpreting of some canonical Islamic sacredtexts in relation to the hijabs and gender.Finally, in this book, Dr. Manal Hamzeh offers a vision for how the sacred text reinterpreted by critical feminist epistemologies may represent acurriculum that is open to critique and holds potential for change towards justice. With this, Dr. Hamzeh calls upon researchers and educators to openspaces for creativity and collaborate with muslim girls in order to, 1) navigate the multiplicity and fluidity of their subjectivities implicated byintersecting discourses in their lives, and 2) honor their choices while supporting them to negotiate thethought-of as fixed Islamic values that may jeopardize their chances of any learning opportunity. This acall to work with muslim girls as theorizers of possibilities and as the main agents of change in theirown lives. This is a call to open with muslim girls opportunities to practice their agency in unpackingand challenging normative discourses in their lives, not exclusive to the hijab discourse This is a call foropening spaces of struggle and uprising and cultivating moments of meaning and shifts ofconsciousness.
