The other suspects appear to be Arab or something similar.

Blacks I've known here who go muslim are mainly 3 groups. Nation of Islam, Moorish Science Temple, and Sunnis. The first two are really fakirs and not terribly accepted by the mullah crowd. The Sunnis of course are I suppose the real thing.
What amuses me about the "back to Africa" aspect of this is that A) Nearly all black slaves were of Ibo, Yoruba, Coramatee, or Mandingo heritage and were religiously ANIMISTS not Muslims. and B) Muslims did in fact have a large hand in enslaving their ancestors to begin with.....continuing till this very day.
Some blacks wish for a "roots" religion they ought to look into animal and nature worship and old fashioned witch doctor stuff. Better yet, go Rasta...they are more peaceful.
