This field study was conducted in northern and central Florida at sites in St. Augustine and Ft. Mose, a corruption of the name Musa --the Arabic word for Moses, first adopted by its original turban-wearing African and Seminole Indian inhabitants. Research was also conducted in the St. John River valley and in Gainesville and Orlando. Activities included a five- day long examination of early historical sites and examination of early historical sites and examination of primary source documents housed in the Samory Rashid, c.v., p. 18.GRANT FUNDED FIELD STUDY (continued)Florida Historical Society in St. Augustine, Florida, (established in 1565), the oldest European settlement in North America. This field study explored an archeological excavation at Fort Mose led by a prominent research team at the University of Florida as well as the community of Lincolnville, formerly known as Africville in St. Augustine, which may be the oldest known black community in what would later become the United States. The French settlement at St. Augustine predates the first British settlement at Jamestown, Virginia in 1619 and housing structures built by enslaved Africans which predate the US White House in Washington, D.C. described by former First Lady, Michelle Obama, as being built by enslaved Africans. This highly original research predates other more widely-known studies on Islam among blacks in early America including archeological and historical studies of the life and family of Saleh Bilali of Sapelo Island, Georgia. Information from this research has led to publications in prominent international journals and predates the 9-11 attacks on the US to offer a counter narrative to the popular myth that Islam and Muslims represent an inherent threat to the U.S. and to the equally dangerous myth that that militant Islam only first reached American shores with the tragic attacks of 9-11. INTERVIEWSState Magazine, Indiana State University, Fall 2016 Participated in an interview for State Magazine. The ninety-minute interview focused on turmoil in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and prospects for peace in Africa (DRC). State Magazine, Indiana State University, Spring 2017 Participated in an interview for State Magazine. Each interview lasted Approximately one hour. The subject of the interview was President Obama’s eight-year administration –its achievements, legacy and limits.Washington Post Newspaper, Washington, D.C., August 2017 Engaged in an interview with a Washington Post writer and expert on Islam and Muslims both in the Middle East and the US. The interview was sparked by a recent Pew Memorial Trust study of Muslims in the US. The interview focused on explanations for the declining population of the black indigenous Muslim in the US and the factors which explain this decline. The interpretation and implication of this trend were discussed in detail. Scholarly and statistical information were shared with the Post. Several quotes derived from this interview later appeared in other outlets. Quotations from my August 2017 interview with the Washington Post appeared in Al-Arabiya-English. This article discussed the legacy of Islam among black Muslims in the US and its evolution since the days of Malcolm X and the Nation of Islam (NOI) movement. Al-Arabiya is among the top two or three news outlets in Saudi Arabia and the 1.2 billion large Muslim-world.
