Shaheen Bagh (2021): Gender, Affects, and Ita Mehrotra’s Graphic Narrative of Protest
No full textIta Mehrotra’s journalistic memoir, Shaheen Bagh: A Graphic Recollection (2021), through the graphic narrative medium, facilitates a reading of the Shaheen Bagh protests in India, particularly those in Delhi, as pivoting on affective strategies. This article argues how the women of Shaheen Bagh in Delhi mobilised affects primarily through the following activities – sharing food, singing songs and the display of artwork. The article explores: What role does the graphic narrative genre of Mehrotra’s book play in the representation of affective strategies used in the Shaheen Bagh protests? And since Shaheen Bagh was considered remarkable because the organisers were Muslim women (Verde and Kumar, 2020, n. p.), how does the study of gender and ethnicity in relation to affective strategies contribute to this proposed reading? This article is situated within the intersecting discourses of South Asian Feminisms, Contemporary South Asian literature, and Affect Theory
Jack G. Shaheen 1935–2017
No full textPioneering author and media critic, Dr. Jack Shaheen devoted his life to identifying and contesting damaging stereotypes of Arabs and Muslims in American media and pop culture. Arabs and Muslims were offered up as cartoon caricatures—dagger wielding, evil, ridiculous, hypersexualized, inhumane and incompetent “others.” Dr. Shaheen quickly recognized their shared genealogy to the portrayals of other racialized groups including Jews, Native Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos, and African Americans. Always in the spirit of engaged dialogue, he was outspoken in defense of any group that was wrongfully stereotyped and vilified.</jats:p
Shaheen Bagh and the Politics of Protest in the Anti-CAA Movement in India
No full textThis article attempts to understand the pathways and politics of resistance within the anti-CAA/NRC (Citizenship Amendment Act/National Register of Citizenship) protests in India. Led and organised by Muslim women, the activists living in the locality of Shaheen Bagh emerged as a powerful symbol of resistance against, and reimagination of, hegemonic notions of nationalism, secularism, citizenship, and belonging in contemporary India. By exploring the resistance seen in Shaheen Bagh as a case study, our analysis tries to understand the ways in which the protest was a reflection of emergent solidarity, engendered in part by the communalisation of everyday life in India and the rise of Hindu majoritarianism. We contend that the actions in Shaheen Bagh should be seen as symbolising an organic resistance movement located at the intersection of gender and religion. This research aims to raise the following questions: How did the activists from Shaheen Bagh navigate its potential as a gender-based protest movement while framing a political opposition to CAA/NRC? How does the idea of Shaheen Bagh offer us new vocabularies of thinking about alternative democratic futures through the prism of prefigurative politics? This article suggests we need to resist a linear or coherent reading of the protest and instead attend to its fragmentary, contested, and contradictory forms

An explanation-oriented inquiry dialogue game for expert collaborative recommendations
No full textThe objective of the user study was to evaluate the usability of the dialogue protocol. The protocol is supposed to facilitate collaborative decision making between medical experts. Usability evaluation has been done to assess whether and how much the protocol enables transfer of learning, conflict resolution, agreement on explanations and collaborative decision making. Due to the highly specialised profile (i.e. medical experts) required for the test subjects in this user study, it was difficult to recruit test subjects. So discount testing was done with the minimum number of participants for the formative study (5 participants). The goal of the study was to elicit user’s perspectives on effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction of the platform and the underlying protocol in meeting their professional communication needs. The participants were final year medical students from a medical university in Barcelona, Spain. They were volunteers who responded to a call for participation after reading the advertised information sheet through their University’s human resource department.Participants were given scenarios (medical cases) based on anonymous patient data taken from the publicly available Thyroid dataset from the Machine Learning repository (https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Thyroid+Disease, DOI: https://doi.org/10.24432/C5D010). For each session of the usability testing, participants were divided into groups of three. They were then tasked with collaboratively deciding on the best possible diagnosis and advice for an anonymous patient with a thyroid disorder. Each scenario asked the participants to diagnose and prescribe treatments for test examples taken from the dataset. Each participant needed a computer to access the web application. The researcher in charge moderated each session and conducted the interview at the end of each session. Each session took 45 minutes in total. The post session interviews from the user study were recorded with the consent of participants, transcribed and the interview data was thematically analysed to discover key insights. Openly available are the experimental cases (original Thyroid dataset) used as an experimental material discussed during interviews and the questions asked during the interviews (both attached to this repository). Due to the decision of The Bioethics Commission of the University of Barcelona, full transcripts of interviews could not be publicly shared.
