[Reader-list] Sound Unbound (MIT Press)

[Naeem Mohaiemen]

I have a text in this anthology that has just been published.

I wrote the essay, "Fear of a Muslim Planet", in early 2006. But due
to publisher schedules, the anthology from MIT Press in which it
appears came out this spring. In the meantime, various new names
emerged, including Lupe Fiasco, who was absent from my 2005-2006
research.

The text remains as is, except for the inclusion of Lupe right before
it went to press. As for the writing style, an earnest,
culture-as-tool permeates the conclusion, legacy of the mode of
thought I was in during 2002-2006 (everything was about war-on-terror
framed "struggle").
