The Manicurist’s Daughter is much more than a memoir about grief\, trauma\, and body image. It is a story of fierce determination\, strength in shared culture\, and finding your place in the world. \nSusan Lieu is a Vietnamese-American author\, playwright\, and performer who tells stories that refuse to be forgotten. A daughter of nail salon workers\, she took her autobiographical solo theatre show 140 LBS: How Beauty Killed My Mother on a 10-city national tour with sold out premieres and accolades from L.A. Times\, NPR\, and American Theatre. Eight months pregnant\, she premiered her sequel OVER 140 LBS as the headliner for ACT Theatre’s SoloFest. The Manicurist’s Daughter is her first book.

SUMMARY:Walking Away from the Headscarf: Analyzing the Online Platform\, "You Will Not Walk Alone"
DESCRIPTION:When: Monday\, April 29\, 2024\, 4:00 pm\nWhere: Webinar \nView the event recording.  \nSemiha Topal will discuss the changing dynamics between the Islamist and secularist regimes of power in Turkey within the last decade. Since 2018\, an online platform with the name “You Will Not Walk Alone\,” has been publishing anonymous letters from Turkish Muslims\, the majority of whom are young women socialized into wearing the headscarf during the AKP era. By questioning what these young women are walking away from and what they are walking towards with their desire to remove their hijab\, this virtual lecture offers a rethinking of the current role of the headscarf as a maker and/or marker of Islamic piety and political subjectivity. \nThe event is part of the MESA Global Academy Initiative. \nSemiha Topal\, recieved her Ph.D. in Religious Studies from Arizona State University in 2012\, with her dissertation on “Building a Pious Self in Secular Settings: Muslim Women in Modern Turkey.” She holds an M.A. in Gender Studies and Religion from SOAS\, University of London in the UK. Before her current role as the Program Manager of the Tuohy Center for Interreligious Understanding at John Carroll University in Cleveland\, OH\,  Dr. Topal worked as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Colgate University in Hamilton\, NY\, and at William & Mary in Williamsburg\, VA\, teaching courses on gender\, secularism\, and Islam\, in Turkey and the Middle East. \nOrganized by:  \nCenter for Near Eastern Studies \nCosponsored by: \nDepartment of Gender Studies\, UCLA Center for the Study of Women|Barbra Streisand Center
