At the Library: Looking for the Self in Borrowed Words
My research focused on children’s libraries in middle\/upper-middle-class schools of Karachi. I explored how children’s reading during their early school years, with a lack of representation of brown children in the available literature, impacted how they viewed themselves and the world around them as they grew older.<\/p>\n
By navigating children’s libraries across the city, I also looked into how Urdu literature has been systematically relegated to the sidelines. Based on my research, I am designing an interactive exhibit resembling a children’s library which features an illustrated storybook. The story is set in a school during colonial-era Karachi, highlighting how colonial systems impacted children’s perceptions of whiteness and the English language.
