Welcome to Muslims In America.org |
Collections & Stories of American Muslims inc. (CSAM) was created
in 1996 as a non-profit organization to establish an Islamic museum,
traveling exhibition, and archives in the United States. The exhibition
reflects America’s Islamic history and culture dating back to 1600's
and 1900's and more...
The Exhibit brings to life America's Islamic heritage with some eye
opening photographs. For example, in Memphis, at the Alex Haley Museum in
Henning Tennessee, there is a picture of Chicken
George, grandson of Kunta Kinte, dressed in Islamic style clothing.
Throughout the 1980's and 1990's we have seen much growth in the Muslim
community. Today there are many Muslims across the country that are
holding elected offices as local City Council members, State
representatives, a Mayor, and Judges. We find Muslims in every
profession today as Doctors, Lawyers, Teachers and others.
Today Islam is the fastest growing Religion in America and has now become the second largest religion in the United States.
