We talk with Educator/Writer Layla Abdullah-Poulos about the #BlackMuslimsRead social media campaign, and the lack of appreciation for the literary and artistic contributions of African American Muslims. Layla is the managing editor for the NbA (Native Born American) Muslims blog on the Patheos Muslim Channel. The blog highlights the heritages, experiences, and cultural productions of native‐born American Muslims of African American, Indigenous, Latinx, and European descent.
