Hussain, who is himself an American Muslim, contends that Muslims played an essential role in the creation and cultivation of the United States. In Muslims and the Making of America, Hussain directly address the stereotypes of Muslims following 9/11 and terrorism. Far from undermining America, Islam and American Muslims have been, and continue to be, important threads in the fabric of American Life. Hussain chronicles the history of Islam in American to underscore the valuable cultural influence of Muslims on American Life. He then rivets attention on music, sports, and culture as key areas in which Muslims have shaped and transformed American Identity. American, Hussain concludes, would not exist as it does today without the essential contributions made by its Muslim citizens.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.69709 Hu Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 305.69709 Hu Checked In Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 305.69709 Hu Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.69709 Hu Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.69709 Hu Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.69709 Hu Checked In Add Copy to MyList
