Sulayman Nyang, a professor at Howard University and author of "Islam in the United States of America", identifies the periods in which Islam gradually came to the attention of the American non-Muslim society. He does this by accounting for the various waves of Muslims making their way to America and the great impact they've had. These "waves", or stages of evolution of Muslims in America, are five: the Pre-Columbus explorers and settlers, the importation of slaves, emigration to the "new world", converts and native-born Muslims, and the institutionalization of Islam in America. Delivered at the Dar al Islam Teachers' Institute in New Mexico, this talk provides a wealth of information in the form of names, dates and events and is an invaluable resource for any "Islam In America" enthusiast.
