Borders on Belonging: Gender and Immigration

We've Come Undone

Kayhan Irani

Kayhan Irani's performance, "We've Come Undone," shows the emotional effects of racist targeting against Muslims and its conflation of heterogeneous identities through the experience of a Sikh woman who receives a Muslim-hate phone call in the wake of the racial-profiling responses to 9/11. This performance was recorded at the evening kick-off event for The Scholar & Feminist Conference XXXII, "Fashioning Citizenship: Gender and Immigration," on March 23, 2007 at Barnard College.
