RT Article T1 Why being a woman matters when countering islamophobia in Australia JF The Palgrave handbook of gendered Islamophobia SP 461 OP 483 A1 Carland, Susan LA English YR 2024 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1925237389 AB Australian Muslim women are far more likely to be the target of Islamophobic attacks than men, and common narratives often paint Muslim women merely as victims of Islamophobia. This chapter takes a new approach and considers how Muslim women may counter Islamophobia and the various audiences they must contend with in their work. Using de Koning’s interpellation framework, this research investigates why Australian Muslim women believe gender matters in public countering Islamophobia work and proposes new developments to the framework based on the way Australian Muslim women must mediate the ascriptions of both non-Muslims and Muslim men. This research draws on in-depth interviews with Sunni, Shi’i, and Ahmadiyya women from around Australia who are active in public countering Islamophobia education initiatives.
