Black Man's Journey in America: Glimpses of Islam, Conversations and Travels e-bog

One of the most progressive movements for Freedom, Justice and Equality in African American history has been Islam. Transported into America among the very first slaves,it has survived for four centuries under the most difficult of circumstances. Yet, it has produced some of the most influential leaders among Black Americans including ElijahMuhammad, Malcolm X, Imam Warithu Deen Mohammed, Louis Farrakhan and many others. In A Black Mans Journey in America: Glimpses of Islam, Conversations and Travels,I have placed my familys history within the context of that Islamic heritage. Further, I have attempted to unravel the method through which African American Muslims were so often forced to embrace as a means of survival.
