520 |a "This book draws on an extensive archive of over one hundred oral narratives collected and recorded with Iraqi women in three settlement sites: Amman, Detroit, and Toronto. It demonstrates how the relationship between ethno-religious migrants, nation, and citizenship are shaped by the traumatic experiences of forced displacement and integration into new communities and national imaginaries. The book also examines broader historical trends that have precipitated migration from Iraq, and shaped existing networks into which these women integrate in North America. While informed by research into the limited archival documentary record on Iraqis in North America, the book is first and foremost a study of gender and memory that centers women's oral histories. It also examines how contemporary debates on global citizenship and religious feminism resonate for the individual. By historicizing the process by which ethno-religious and ethno-national communities become fractured and remade, the book explores the expectations and realities of women as the supposed biological and cultural reproducers of the nation. In diaspora, the Iraqi women of this study assert their claims to belonging across three different generations, thereby opening up spaces to discuss how sites of migration shape the ability of migrants to lobby for 'the homeland' even as they engage in daily struggles to advance their education and economic stability in Canada and the U.S."--  |c Provided by publisher.
