Radio Islam

Tariq is joined by Radio Islam Cultural Contributor Layla Abdullah-Poulos who gives us a recap of the Black Muslim Authors Round-table which she moderated, and was held at New York University. The event was centered around the connections between Black Muslim Authors today and the literary tradition of Black Authorship in general. In the second half the two talk about: convert or born Muslim, and the historical importance of African American women in community life and how that impacts African American Muslim women's representation in literature. Layla also gives us some exciting updates on future events. Follow her @laylawriteslove on Twitter. Guest- Layla Abdullah-Poulos Host/Producer/Engineer- Tariq I.
