PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Susan J. Palmer is an Affiliate Professor at Concordia University, and a Lecturer and Researcher at McGill University. She has authored or co-edited many books on new religious movements. Dilmurat Mahmut is an independent researcher, and his research interests include Muslim identity in the West, immigrant/refugee integration and Uyghur diaspora identity. Abdulmuqtedir Udun is a Uyghur researcher, journalist and interpreter based in Ottawa, Canada.
This is the first book to specifically highlight the critical role Uyghur women in diaspora have played in bringing attention to the challenges that Uyghurs face today. These oral histories reveal the fortitude of a community under duress, and are an important backdrop for examining Uyghur activism through a gender lens. * Rebecca Clothey, Professor of Global Studies, Drexel University, USA *
