Education and Muslim Identity During a Time of Tension explores
life inside an Islamic Center and school in present-day America.
Melanie Brooks' work draws on in-depth discussions with community
and school leaders, teachers, parents and students to present
thoughtful and contemporary perspectives on many issues central to
American-Muslim identities. Particularly poignant are the
children's voices, as they discuss their developing identities and
how they navigate the choice of being American, Muslim, or both.
The book covers topics ranging from establishing the community and
the considerations involved, the management of diversity within the
community, and approaches to modern opinions on and experiences of
gender and extremism in the western world. Based on focus groups,
interviews and observations collected over a two-year period, this
book serves as a fascinating and informative insight into the
culture and experiences of modern American Muslims. This is
essential reading for students and researchers interested in
education, religion, politics, sociology, and most particularly in
contemporary Islamic studies.
