Global Middle East Studies provides a forum for UIC faculty and students interested in the Middle East and North African region and its diasporas to build programming and community grounded in critical area studies and critical ethnic studies frameworks that are attentive to race, class, gender, nationality, sexuality, empire, colonialism, ability, and their intersections.
