Some years ago, Amir Muhammad began researching his family's roots without any thought that it might lead him to America's little-known Islamic heritage. Until then, he assumed that most American Muslims arrived in the 20th century, and he was unaware of any Islamic connection in his own family prior to his personal acceptance of Islam 35 years ago.

I take it this fellow never saw the miniseries "Roots." Kunta Kinte was Moslem, after all, and he was supposed to have lived at the time of the American Revolution.
