“8 CENTURIES OF MUSLIMS IN AMERICA” provides a comprehensive study of how the history of Islam in America has evolved. Hailed for its extraordinary narrative power and unprecedented scope in rewriting history, the documentary examines the settlements of African Muslims in America during the 14th century, who were seen practicing their religion by Christopher Columbus in 1492. The film traces Muslim history in the United States through the slavery era, then reconstructs the dawning of the 20th century, which saw the birth of a new Islamic movement. This epic documentary then follows the immigration of Muslims from around the world, who over the next 100 years would build monumental Islamic mosques in America. "8 Centuries of Muslims in America" defines the Muslim experience in America like never before. It features never before released video footage of Muhammad Ali, Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. The documentary also tells the story of Imam W. Deen. Mohammed, who led the greatest mass religious conversion in United States history, converting an estimated 2 million Americans to mainstream Islam in 1975. |
