In this context, I describe how Abdullah negotiates his identity in an embodied way in the globalized city as a member of a partitioned’ minority. I will look at how the city impacts upon his body, and at his response, as resistance, to the marginalization forced upon him by the dominant discourse that renders him other’, disenfranchises him, makes him invisible, and silences his dissenting voice. Thus, I will argue, he engages with the discourse of multiculturalism and plays with it on his own terms. Rather than dress his work up in multicultural drag’ (Cohen 2008: 318) he employs a

Since it was our first investigation with the group, I told Kat to behave. We wanted to make a good impression, so no silly behavior or stupid jokes for at least the first hour. Kat protested because her jokes weren’t stupid. As usual, I ignored her.

FIGURE 5.11 Funchal, Madeira. Funchal rises like an amphitheater behind the crescent bay. To feel the ambiance of another time try one of the twenty-five government-owned pousadas, several of them modernized castles, palaces and monasteries, most of them beautifully sited, and furnished to reflect the cultural tradition of the area. To partially experience life in medieval times, dine and stop overnight in the pousada in the walled town of Ubidos. It stretches the imagination to see people living in the exact same rooms that have been inhabited for centuries. For the devout Catholic there is the shrine of Fatima, built

SAFETY AND SECURITY PERSONAL SAFETY EXPLORING. Respecting local customs (in many cases, dressing more conserva tively) may placate would-be hecklers. Familiarize yourself with your surround ings before setting out. Check maps in shops and restaurants rather than on the street.

The Alhambra, on the outskirts of Granada, is seventy-seven miles from Malaga, one of the international gateways to Spain. It also has direct flights from Madrid. The Alhambra suggests the Arab’s idea of heaven, complete with flowers, tinkling waters and beautiful houris. It is a palace with twenty-five or more interiors and courtyards. The Court of the Lions is the Alhambra’s piece de resistance. In the center of the courtyard is a fountain supported by twelve amiable lions, each spewing water from its mouth. Each side of the court is backed by a room, artistic in its own right. The
