Autorenporträt
Dr. Al Atrash is Assistant Professor at the School of Critical and Creative Studies at Alberta University of the Arts, Calgary. Ghada's pedagogy and research are grounded in anti-orientalist, anti-colonial, anti-racism, and feminist frameworks that interrogate and challenge Western hegemonic narratives through an intersectional, transnational, post-colonial lens.
