Just listened to the Disgraced (audiobook) by Ayad Akhtar. Feeling ambivalent about it’s treatment of Islam and Muslims. It’s a problem that non-Muslims are the only ones allowed to think positively of the religion and that too as art or tradition and not theology. 1/
Would loved to have heard your students reactions.

Mostly my students were disturbed and uncomfortable, tbh. I couldn’t decide if it was a good uncomfortable or not. If you do write about it, I’ll have to think harder about what their reactions were and share them (I’m sure I have notes). I haven’t taught it since.

You’ve kind of made me consider putting it on my Othello syllabus for the spring.
