Islam in the Black Community

I suspect that this episode goes back to the beginning--perhaps 1997 or '98. Our guest is Noah Seifullah, who was the imam of the predominantly Black mosque here in Grand Rapids, MI then. It has been years since he has acted in that capacity. Back in the day Noah was quite a fixture in the interfaith community. He really seemed to drop off the face of the earth. I miss him.

Noah, like many Black Americans who converted to Islam, was 1st drawn to The Nation of Islam. But like Malcolm X before him, saw through the antisemitism & bigotry, & ended up as a devotee of orthodox Sunni Islam.

As always with these ancient nuggets, please disregard any events, dates, websites, etc.

Enjoy.
