Assistant Professor Askwak Hauter published ”The Reparative Work of the Imagination” in the American Journal of Islam and Society. The essay and community-based project traces the works of Yemeni artists that meditate on the conditions of the image of the Yemeni as lacking migrants and how it weighs heavily on community, trust, and individual and communal well-being. It illustrates the reparative power of the imagination. In turn, it considers how local political histories mediate communal aspirations, as well as the difficult psychic work necessary to articulate this aspiration amid cultural desolation.
