“These six short documentary films tell unlikely stories about being Muslim in the United States. Among the incredible stories they share is the unusual tale of the first mosque in North Dakota and the moving story of Muhammad Kahn, an immigrant from Afghanistan who traveled to the United States in 1861 and fought in the Union Army before sparring with the US government for the veteran pension he deserved. This series may shift some of your thinking about the history of diversity in this country — it’s longer, for instance, than you might think — and new revelations finally allow a fuller story to be told. Highly watchable.”
