Hi folks, here goes an #introduction: I’m Umayyah Cable (they/them) and I’m an assistant professor in the departments of American Culture and Film, Television, & Media at the University of Michigan, and a core faculty member in the Arab and Muslim American Studies program. My research and teaching focus on: Palestinian cinema, media activism, Arab American cultural productions, and film festivals. I enjoy showering my #rescuedog Jasper with TLC, #gardening, and experiments in #sourdough baking.
