““English is a minor language,” is a statement that Palestinian graphic designer and educator Rasha Dakkak introduces to build a framework, a curriculum, and a platform. Not unlike Chakravarty’s provocation, the statement in itself promotes a kind of insolence in the face of an otherwise righteous discontent with the hegemony of the English language which, more often than not, fails to actually engage English for what it is: a minor language among at least seven thousand others. Some might call this wishful thinking, while others might even deem it rude. But this isn’t to say that Dakkak is misusing shock value as a means of resting on her laurels; indeed, her practice is characterized by a deep commitment to and an unpacking of the source material she takes up and engages with.” Excerpt from an essay on Rasha Dakkak by Edwin Nasr
