Islam in America: Whither and Where
A lecture in English in which Sh. Yaser Qady gives a comprehensive history of Islam in America. He explores the history of Islam and Muslims in the Americas from the beginning to the present day, discusses everything from the pre-Columbus era to theories about early Muslim exploration of the New World, to the Muslim Slave experience, the Nation of Islam, right through to the advent of both early and recent Muslim immigration. He gave that speech, coincidentally, from the same podium where Abraham Lincoln spoke a few hundred years ago, and Barack "Hussein" Obama, two days earlier.
