Join us for an online panel event exploring The Asian Gang Revisited: Changing Muslim Masculinities by Claire Alexander, recently featured in a special symposium in Identities: Global Studies in Culture and Power. Bringing together contributors to the symposium alongside colleagues from the Stuart Hall Archive Project, this session reflects on the book’s enduring insights into racialisation, masculinity, and the shifting terrain of British Muslim identities.
