This project is curated by Kayla Renée Wheeler and was inspired by Professor Najeeba Syeed-Miller, #BlackInMSA, and MuslimARC. The goal of this project is to provide teachers, professors, researchers, journalists, and people interested in learning more about Islam with resources on Black Muslims to promote a more inclusive approach to the study of Islam. If you would like to contribute to this project, post your recommendations on Twitter using #BlackIslamSyllabus or email Kayla Wheeler at kayla-wheeler@uiowa.edu.
