This book documents the history of the Muslim community in the
United States, and particularly in California, and the foundation
and evolution of the Southern California Islamic Center. The
associated digital archive was built in an ongoing project with the
University of California, Los Angeles. This substantial work of
social history analyses the Islamic Center’s work from 1953 to
1977 as it tries to establish itself within the mosaic of Southern
Californian society. The work of the Islamic Centre has hardly been
documented in the literature, and the social history of the wider
Muslim Community in the USA is arguably under-researched. This is a
unique and important contribution, of interest to historians,
social scientists and students of race and religion in America.
