Nabil Echchaibi is Associate Professor of media studies and Director of the Center for Media, Religion and Culture at the University of Colorado Boulder. His research and teaching focus on media, religion and the politics and poetics of Muslim visibility, and decolonial theory. He is the author of Voicing Diasporas: Ethnic Radio in Paris and Berlin Between Culture and Renewal and the co-editor of International Blogging: Identity, Politics and Networked Publics; Media and Religion: The Global View; The Thirdspaces of Digital Religion; and Hypermediations: Religion, Media, and Crisis. His opinion columns have been published in The Guardian, Forbes, Al-Jazeera, Salon, LatinoRebels, and Religion Dispatches and in publications in France and Morocco. Echchaibi is currently writing his book, Unmosquing Islam, Media and Fugitive Muslimness, which calls into view the blackmail of a regime of transparency that governs the visibility of Muslims and reclaims the lived experience of Muslimness by insisting on its fugitivity and instability away from an imaginary of enmity and fixed ontology.  He is the co-Editor of the journal Cultural Studies.
