Islam And The Blackamerican by Alan A. Jackson
Looking Toward the Third Resurrection
A concise historical and sociological study of the development, expressions, and impact of Islam within Black American communities, tracing roots from early African influences through twentieth-century movements and leaders. It examines how varieties of Islamic belief and practice—both separatist and orthodox—shaped racial identity, political activism, cultural life, and debates over reform and assimilation in the United States. The book analyzes key organizations and figures, theological adaptations, and the tensions between religious conviction and American social structures, arguing that Islam offered both spiritual resources and a framework for social transformation among Black Americans.
