Summoned from the Margin tells the story of Lamin Sanneh's
fascinating journey from his upbringing in an impoverished village
in West Africa to education in the United States and Europe to a
distinguished career teaching at the Universities of Yale, Harvard,
Aberdeen, and Ghana. He grew up in a polygamous household in The
Gambia and attended a government-run Muslim boarding school. A
chance encounter with Helen Keller's autobiography taught him that
education and faith are the key to overcoming physical and personal
hardship and inspired his journey. Burning theological questions
about God's nature and human suffering eventually led Sanneh to
convert from Islam to Christianity and to pursue a career in
academia. Here he recounts the unusually varied life experiences
that have made him who he is today. Watch the trailer:
