Episode 15: Master Class with Special Guest Amir Sundiata Al Rashid

This episode is the opportunity to hear from my brother, Sundiata
Al Rashid. He is Amir of the Lighthouse Mosque located in
Oakland, California, a manager of a housing facility for the
homeless, and a doctoral student at the Graduate Theological
Union. He studies the history of Black American  Muslims as
descendants from West and North Africa.  In our discussion,
Sundiata defines the terms Black and Mulatto. He also introduces
the history of the Melungeon people to us as he shares what it
means to be a Black American Muslim today. You will get an
opportunity to learn more about our personal history from
Sundiata who has the best memory of anybody you will ever meet.
He shares details of life events and people that we grew up with
including our white stepbrother Adam. The full transcript to the
episode can be found here.
