Craig Michael Considine (born 10 June 1985) is a teaching professor based in the Department of Sociology at Rice University, where he is a Senior Lecturer.[1] Considine has written books on Christian-Muslim relations, Prophet Muhammad’s interactions with Christians, and Islam in America.
Life and career
Birth and family
Craig Considine was born in 1985 and spent his childhood in Needham, Massachusetts. He is of Irish and Italian descent.[2] In his youth, Considine attended the Catholic school Saint Bartholomew's Church and the Needham Public Schools system[citation needed]. As a college student, he wanted to study Arabic and become an intelligence agent, so that he could spy on ‘bad’ Muslims[citation needed]. At the time, he had never even met a Muslim, and admitted to having fallen into the ‘Islamophobia trap.’[3] In 2001, Considine first experienced discrimination against the Muslim community. On the day the World Trade Center was hit, his class was told that it was a terrorist attack. And on the days following this event, Considine overheard his schoolmates saying, ‘Down with Muslims.’ According to him, this was not something he could stand by.[4]
Education
After graduating from Needham High School in 2003[citation needed], Considine attended American University[citation needed], where he pursued a Bachelor of Arts in International relations[citation needed]. Considine studied a master's in science in International Relations at the Royal Holloway, University of London[citation needed]. Considine graduated from Trinity College Dublin in 2015 with a PhD in sociology.[1] His PhD thesis focused on young Pakistani men in Dublin and Boston.[5]
Teaching Career
Considine holds the position of Senior Lecturer in the Department of Sociology at Rice University.[1] In 2020 he received the Sarah A. Burnett Teaching Prize in the Social Sciences from Rice University.[6] As of 2024, Considine has a h-index of 6.[7]
Documentary and Books
Journey into America (documentary)
In 2008, Considine directed[citation needed], edited, and did the cinematography for Akbar Ahmed's Journey into America, an amateur documentary which received limited release. The documentary follows Akbar Ahmed and a group of young researchers as they document Muslim experiences in America.[8] The documentary was funded by Dar Al Islam, an institution in New Mexico for Islamic education.[4] Neither Rotten Tomatoes nor IMDb records any reviews by professional critics or audience members[9][10]. A review in Anthropology Today described the documentary as "a combination of morality tale and road movie", summarizing that it is "intricately composed" although "inconveniently long"[11].
Islam, Race, and Pluralism in the Pakistani Diaspora
Considine's first book was published in 2017 by Routledge.[12] It was about what he referred to as ‘Pakphobia’ or the aversion to Pakistan in the Irish and American context and the perceived threat of radical Islam.[3]
Muslims in America: Examining the Facts
Considine's second book was published in 2018 by Bloomsbury.[13] It is part of a series published by Bloomsbury to provide simple introductions, in the form of 30-40 questions and answers, to non-expert audiences[14]. Considine's book provides a brief introduction to 31 questions about Muslims in American society.[15]
The Humanity of Muhammad: A Christian View
In 2020, Considine's "The Humanity of Muhammad: A Christian View" was published by Blue Dome Press[16]. In the book, Considine offers a Christian perspective on Islamic beliefs.[17] The book received a positive review in Memo: Middle East Monitor, describing the book as "clearly a heartfelt and very personal perspective."[18]
