the previous slide says how more and more Muslims are comming into America, which will create more American\Muslim history for later years.

More and more through the years, muslims are becomming more and more involved in the world and America. Other than the slaves and the terrorist attacks in America, muslims are comming in great numbers from Europe, especially Eastern Europe. In bosnia, back in 1995, there was a war and serbians tried to kill all of the Bosnians. The reason for this because Bosnians are Muslim. The ones who wernt killed, moved to America, or Canada. Same thing kind of happened to the Muslim Turks who lived in Russia. They git kicked out just cause they were Muslim.

Islam is a big part of the worlds history and especially American history. When people think of Muslims, or Islam, usally all they can think of is when they attacked the twin towers and other terrorist attacks. They say things that really put down the majority of Muslims and make jokes that makes their individual selfes look bad for something that they didnt do. Muslims in a way, were the building blocks of american history and and they desearve more respect than they get.

Muslims have been a big part of america for a long time. Ever sinse the very first slaves came to america. They have done a lot for us like how they brought new culture into america. There are other parts of the world that have islamic herritages in it. Not just Africa. Infact, pretty much every country in the world has muslims in it. We just dont realize it. All through history, Muslims have immigrated from all over the world to America

Muhammad Ali, and Al Hajj Malik (Malcolm X), were some of the first to go through with this movement. Both later embraced true Islam.

Albanian Muslims build a Masjid in Maine and establish an Islamic association. By 1919, they had established another Masjid in

Connecticut. Theirs was one of the first associations for Muslims in the United States. Then in 1930, African American Muslims establish the First Muslim Mosque in

Pittsburghg PA.

In 1530, Slaves came from Africa and a lot of them were muslim. More than 10 million Africans were taken from their homes and brought to american land. After they got to America,  some were sent to Mexico, Cuba, and South America. More than 30 percent of these 10 million slaves were Muslim. This was the starting point of Islam in America and they became the backbone of the American economy.

bThere have been a few organizations that have tried to bring together American Muslims accross america. 1933, The Nation of Islam (NOI), one of the most

significant organizations in American Muslim history, is founded. NOI was also effective in highlighting American Christians difficulties combating the effects of slavery and racism among African Americans. The NOI's philosophy was introduced in the United

States by Fard Muhammad (Wallace Ford), mystic who disappeared in 1933. The late Elijah Mohammed, who

succeeded Fard in 1933, helped build the organization into a strong ethnic movement

showing people that Islam as way of life. Two of the most famous African Americans.
