Life
Nadje Sadig Al-Ali was born to an Iraqi father and German mother in Germany.[5] She did not learn Arabic as a child, and has not lived in Iraq; in a 2006 article she expressed discomfort with the "essentializing and simplistic" way the term ‘Iraqi’ has been ascribed to her "by the Western media, academia and Iraqi women alike."[2]
Al-Ali was raised in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, where she lived until the age of 18.
