Digging into the history of Islam in America, students at Louisiana University will have the opportunity to get better information about Islam and Muslims in a five-week series of readings and discussions.
“Islam is the world’s second largest religion, so when it goes through a period of internal revision it affects more than just its own adherents,” Dr. Ahmad Nazir Atassi, a Tech assistant professor of history, told Shreveport Times.
The Muslim professor was speaking about a new program planned by Louisiana Tech’s department of history to discuss the Muslim experience in America.
The program titled, “Let’s Talk About It: Muslim Journeys,” will be divided into five sessions, each scheduled for a Tuesday evening during October.
