1) Who is Shadh Alshammari? What are her identities? What does she mean by ‘hybridized identity’? 2) How do her different identities pose a problem in her culture? As a woman? In academics? 3) How does Alshammari’s article reflect the concept of intersectionality? (hint: How does she describe disability in terms of the Western tradition of viewing the body? What about Eastern conceptions of disability [both Middle East and Bedouin cultures])?
