Naaz Rashid is an Associate Professor in Media and Film at the University of Sussex's School of Media, Arts and Humanities. She specializes in race, ethnicity, postcolonial studies, gender dynamics, and the representation of Muslims in policy and media contexts. Her research critically examines gendered Islamophobia, urban sociology, and creative food industries.
Her work interrogates themes like the 'War on Terror's impact on Muslim communities, the politics of representation in counterterrorism policies, and intersectional feminist theorizing. Notable publications include analyses of femonationalism in UK and German contexts and studies on British Bangladeshi Muslim experiences in urban environments.
Rashid has received a British Academy grant (2019-2022) for exploring London's pop-up restaurant scene through postcolonial and cultural lenses. Her scholarship bridges academic rigor with public engagement, addressing urgent sociopolitical issues like xenophobia and policy dehumanization of marginalized groups.
