Young Somali Women and Narrative Participatory Photography: Interrupting Fixed Identities Through Dumarka Soomaaliyeed Voices Unveiled Young Somali Women and Narrative Participatory Photography: Interrupting Fixed Identities through Dumarka Soomaaliyeed Voices Unveiled DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ruth Marie Smith Graduate Program in Arts Administration, Education and Policy The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Karen Hutzel, Advisor Dr. Sydney Walker Dr. Leslie Moore Dr. Patty Bode Copyright by Ruth Marie Smith 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines the articulations and interruptions of Dumarka Soomaaliyeed Voices Unveiled (DSVU), a narrative participatory photography project that resulted in an exhibit of photographs and stories exploring what it is to be Muslim, Somali women in Columbus, Ohio. The primary source for the concepts of articulation and interruption is the community theory of Jean-Luc Nancy (1991, 1997, 2000). I employed participatory action research with fourteen young women to develop the narrative participatory photography method asserted in this study. In addition, a conceptual framework bringing together Nancy’s community theory, diasporic cultural identity, and political action as interruption emerged from the intersection of the fields of Somali Studies and Community Arts. In this research, I identify and analyze two articulations of Somali woman, which include: 1) stories about who they are told they are, how they identify themselves as a group of young women, and how they identify themselves as individuals; and 2) stories about not knowing what it means to be Somali. The stories of s interrupt: 1) stereotypes and assumptions held by others (both Somali and non-Somali) through creating points of empathy, presenting multiple viewpoints, experiencing affronting encounters, and giving attention to relationship; and 2) participants’ perceptions by offering a space to share stories and consciously choose what to follow and what to leave behind. This research offers a retheorization of relationship and political action in PAR and Community Arts, a new model of narrative participatory photography, and strategies for community arts educators engaged with immigrant and refugee communities. ii To the women who opened their lives and homes to me: Qorsho, Nasra, Hoda, Muna, S., Zam Zam, Asha, Bahja, Miriam, A., Kayla, Zahra, Ladan, and Raamla. To my family for all their support, especially my husband who always sees the good in the work I do. To God, who led me to this place and taught me what relationship means. iii Acknowledgments Research and writing is not an individual act and without the support of the following individuals and organizations, this dissertation would not have been possible: Dr. Karen Hutzel, my advisor who has faithfully mentored me these past four years and introduced me into the Somali community in the first place. My committee members – Dr. Sydney Walker, Dr. Leslie Moore, Dr. Patty Bode, and Dr. Candace Stout – whose advice, support, and feedback have proved invaluable. The classmates who stretched my thinking in so many ways, especially my writing partner, Verónica Betancourt. Staff members at the Columbus Metropolitan Library branches where the project was exhibited, whose enthusiasm for reaching new patrons and creative responses to community issues through literacy, the arts, and education made it a joy to collaborate with them. I am especially thankful for the Northern Lights staff, who by the end, felt like partners in this project. The Schweitzer Fellowship program, Puffin Foundation West, and the Ohio Art Education Association’s Franklin County Neighborhood Arts grant program, each who provided financial support for DSVU. The family members and friends, who helped hang photographs, attended exhibitions, bought countless cups of coffee, and provided childcare. iv Vita

    Tol , Xeer , and Somalinimo : Recognizing Somali and Mushunguli Refugees as Agents in the Integration Process A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Vinodh Kutty IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY David M. Lipset July 2010 © Vinodh Kutty 2010 Acknowledgements A doctoral dissertation is never completed without the help of many individuals. And to all of them, I owe a deep debt of gratitude. Funding for this project was provided by two block grants from the Department of Anthropology at the University of Minnesota and by two Children and Families Fellowship grants from the Annie E. Casey Foundation. These grants allowed me to travel to the United Kingdom and Kenya to conduct research and observe the trajectory of the refugee resettlement process from refugee camp to processing for immigration and then to resettlement to host country. The members of my dissertation committee, David Lipset, my advisor, Timothy Dunnigan, Frank Miller, and Bruce Downing all provided invaluable support and assistance. Indeed, I sometimes felt that my advisor, David Lipset, would not have been able to write this dissertation without my assistance! Timothy Dunnigan challenged me to honor the Somali community I worked with and for that I am grateful because that made the dissertation so much better. Frank Miller asked very thoughtful questions and always encouraged me and Bruce Downing provided me with detailed feedback to ensure that my writing was clear, succinct and organized. I also have others to thank. To my colleagues at the Office of Multicultural Services at Hennepin County, I want to say “Thank You Very Much!” They all provided me with the inspiration to look at the refugee resettlement process more critically and dared me to suggest ways to improve it.

Introduction Thiss chapter traces how the change brought about by the colonial imposition led to the primacyy of the public pursuit in Somali politics over a century. The colonial occupation of Somaliaa not only transformed the political economy of Somali society as transformationists emphasizee but also split the Somali people and their territories.74 Therefore, as I will argue in thiss study, the multiple partitioning of the country is one of the key determinants that fundamentallyy account for the destructive turn of events in Somalia at present.

In this dissertation, I explore various aspects of Somali morality as it is constructed, debated, and reinforced by individual women living in Eastleigh.

  • My Dostoyevsky Syndrome: How I Escaped Being a Self-Hating Somali
    My Dostoyevsky Syndrome: How I Escaped Being a Self-Hating Somali Said S. Samatar The habit of reflection is the most pernicious habit of civilized man. Joseph Conrad in Lord Jim Allahayow nin ii daran maxaan daafta hore seexshay Nin ii daaqsanaayana maxaan daafida u kariyey Jidhku nin uuna dooneyn maxaan hadalka deeqsiiyey Ma degdegee xaajada maxaan ugu dulqaad yeeshay Weji debecsan, dayma aan dareen gelin dubaaqiisa Qosol dibadda yaalloon ka iman dhuunta dacalkeeda Isagoon digniin qabin maxaan kaga deyaan siiyey If any man intended aught of villainy against me By God, how snug I made the forecourt for his bed-mat, nonetheless! And if, with aggression in his thoughts He pastured his horses to get them battle-fit How in spite of this I made him griddle-cakes of maize to eat! Amiably I conversed with him for whom my body felt revulsion. I did not hurry, I was patient in dealing with his tricks. I showed a relaxed and easy mien, My looks gave no grounds for suspicion in his mind Laughter on the surface, not rising from the gullet’s depth. Then, when he was all unknowing and unwarned, O how I struck him down! Ugaas Nuur I. Introduction This is an essay in self-doubt, and in subsequent strivings of the soul to shake off the legion of private demons clamoring to offer their unbid- den company in midnight visitations of the blues. As such, it could be catalogued as a confessional item, as revealing of personality quirks as of political mishaps. A striving confessor, much like a drowning man, must grasp at straws, if only to stave off the looming specter of lost honor.

  • Interview with the Late Abdullahi Qarshe (1994) at the Residence of Obliqe Carton in Djibouti
    Interview with the late Abdullahi Qarshe (1994) at the Residence of Obliqe Carton in Djibouti Mohamed-Rashid Sheikh Hassan mrsh: Let us start with the basics. When and where were you born? aq: I was born in Moshe, Tanzania, in 1924. mrsh: People know you as Abdullahi Qarshe, but what is your real name? aq: Oh, yes, that is true. My real name is Mahmud Muhammad, and Qarshe was the nickname of my father. He was a businessman and trader in the livestock business in East Africa. He was regarded as a frugal man and was fortunate in business. We were five brothers and one sister. We lived in a big house on the outskirts of Moshe. mrsh: Tell us more about the background of your family and the rea- son your father moved to Tanzania. aq: My father emigrated from Sanaag region in what was at that time called British Somaliland. In those days, emigration (tacabbir) was pop- ular. Men used to travel for work and a better life, but it was not an easy task. Those who emigrated to East Africa, my father included, went through southern Somalia first of all, then proceeded to Tanza- nia. They had to travel by road or foot through harsh and unfriendly territories. Some of the migrants died along the way, and my father was one of the fortunate who survived. In the Sanaag region, my father’s family lived in the Maydh district. They were involved in the fish industry and the exportation of live- stock and animal hides, as well as timber, to the Gulf countries.

    Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2018 Reading Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Chair Ann Anagnost Stevan Harrell Danny Hoffman Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology ©Copyright 2018 Darren T. Byler University of Washington Abstract Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies This study argues that Uyghurs, a Turkic-Muslim group in contemporary Northwest China, and the city of Ürümchi have become the object of what the study names “terror capitalism.” This argument is supported by evidence of both the way state-directed economic investment and security infrastructures (pass-book systems, webs of technological surveillance, urban cleansing processes and mass internment camps) have shaped self-representation among Uyghur migrants and Han settlers in the city. It analyzes these human engineering and urban planning projects and the way their effects are contested in new media, film, television, photography and literature. It finds that this form of capitalist production utilizes the discourse of terror to justify state investment in a wide array of policing and social engineering systems that employs millions of state security workers. The project also presents a theoretical model for understanding how Uyghurs use cultural production to both build and refuse the development of this new economic formation and accompanying forms of gendered, ethno-racial violence.

    Somalia in Word and Image. Edited by Katheryne S. Loughran, John L. Loughran, John William Johnson, Said Sheikh Samatar. Washington, D.C.: The Foundation for Cross Cultural Understanding, 1986. Pp. 175, foreword (by Samuel Hamrick), acknowledgements, selected bibliography, notes, illustrations, B & W and color photographs. No price, paper. Reviewed by Martha Norkunas. I Somalia in Word and Image is the catalog of the first major exhibition of Somali art and artifacts in the United States. Both the exhibi- tion and the catalog were funded by the Ministry of Culture and Higher Education of the Somali Democratic Republic and The National Endowment for the Humanities. I should say that I almost hesitate to call this a catalog for it is really much more, including as it does seven major es- says about Somalia, ninety six pages of photo- graphs, (twenty four of which are in color), a selected bibliography and rather detailed foot- notes. Having been present at the opening of the exhibition at the Mathers Museum in Bloomington, Indiana, in 1983, I was quite interested in see- ing the exhibition's catalog. The exhibition was absolutely striking: upon the walls of several rooms were very large photographs of Somali peo- ple engaged in daily activities, or lost in thought, or walking in the extraordinary land- scape of their country. Beneath each photograph was a quotation from one of Somalia's many poets. I think it was the beauty of the poetry, in conjunction with the simple clarity and force of the photos which so moved me. One of my fav- orite examples was fortunately included in the catalog (although it is not clear if the poems accompany the same photos in the catalog that they did in the exhibition).

Mukhw Somalia has enjoyed a unique role in the history of African nationalism. As the only country in Africa whose population is vinually homogeneous, most speak a common language, all are Muslims and claim to be relaled to a common (or several common) distant ancestors. One might therefore expect thai its independence movement would have been more unified than those ofother African territories where tribal and regional differences came to be reflected in political party groupings after World War Il. Also Somalia was the only country to be partitioned seveml times: once at the end of the 19th century during the scramble for Africa and again in the 1940's following the break-up of the lIalian East African Empire. This would seem to have been another factor that unified Somalis in a sense ofcommon nationalism. However, the drive for Somali independence gave rise to not just one but several political parties. Were these panies based on regional or "tribal" differences of a particular Somali son? Did they have differtnt views ofSomali nationalism and self-government? These questions are difficuh to answer, not only because source materials are limited but also because one Somali party, the Somali Youth League (SYL), came to dominate the political scene in the 1950's and was the majority party at the time of Somali independence in 1960.
