Ashley Al-Sayyad

I found my way to Tucson from Alabama where I earned a BA in English and women's studies. As an undergraduate I worked on appearance and body image in the lesbian community as my main research project along with feminist/ literary/ post-colonial/ etc. theory. Other areas of interest include butch/ femme identity and queer studies. I hope to complete my thesis as a qualitative study of how Muslim lesbians negotiate religion with sexuality/ orientation/ preference.
