It articulates a form of musical production often associated with Islam, hip hop (Alim, 2005; Miah & Kalra, 2008), with spoken word, produced by Muslim women in diaspora, migrants or descendants of migrants, with different backgrounds and different life stories associated with Islam, allowing them effective voice in their self-representation, considered from their online presence (NTI and web 2.0). The diversity of the cultural producers and their forms of expression considered in this paper is understood as an example of the diversity within Islam and also as a denial of any orientalist stereotypes (Saïd, 1979) about Muslim women. Este trabalho foca-se na produção artística de quatro artistas muçulmanas em diáspora – Poetic Pilgrimage, Alia Sharrief, Hanouneh e Alia Gabres – nos géneros hip hop e spoken word, com vista a analisar se as suas práticas culturais podem ser consideradas formas de ativismo político, cívico e social, com o potencial de alargar ou criar esferas públicas alternativas (Fraser, 1990). Articula uma forma de produção musical frequentemente associada ao Islão – o hip hop (Alim, 2005; Miah & Kalra, 2008) –, com uma prática artística de escrita e recitação de poesia, o spoken word, produzidas por mulheres muçulmanas em diáspora, migrantes ou descendentes de migrantes, de diversas proveniências e origens, com diferentes histórias de entrada no Islão, focando a sua agência na sua auto-representação, através tanto da sua produção artística, como da sua presença online (NTI e web 2.0). A diversidade das produtoras culturais e das suas formas de expressão visa ser demonstrativa da diversidade existente no Islão e anular estereótipos orientalistas (Saïd, 1979) que se lhes queiram impor.
