An Unlikely Social Justice Warrior

Making My Life Count as a Muslim Feminist

About this book

What happens when a Malaysian Muslim woman defies expectations and challenges patriarchy?

Ani Zonneveld shares her journey from Kuala Lumpur to rural Illinois, confronting invisible lines drawn by religion, gender, and race—all in pursuit of truth and justice.

From the music industry to global human rights forums, Ani uses her voice—literally and figuratively—to advocate for freedom of expression, women's rights, and LGBTQIA+ inclusion within Islam. Whether navigating UN corridors or standing up to extremists, her story challenges dominant narratives and fosters radical empathy. Her memoir is a bold invitation to step out of tribalism and into allyship, using the intersections of feminism, faith, and the arts as tools for transformation.

Ideal for educators, students, and readers in activism, gender studies, LGBTQIA+ studies, Islamic studies, cultural anthropology, and human rights.
