“I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so [locate the United States on a map] because uh, some people out there in our nation don’t have maps and I believe that our education like such as South Africa and uh, the Iraq everywhere like such as and I believe that they should our education over here! in the U.S. should help the U.S., should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future for our children”.

Muslims In South Philly, Philadelphia 2002 Pt. 1
October 01, 2007 | 20 Ramadhan 1428

Muslims On 15th Street

I came to Philadelphia in 2002 with Dr. Sherman Jackson and a few other brothers from the Detroit area to “see what Philly was all about”. It was a week-long road trip to come out and see first-hand what the Muslim community was like. At that time, I had the feeling that there was a certain mystique about the Philly Muslim community. I was still residing in Detroit at this time and would have never thought I’d be living here in five years. This is the first of a few shots I took from that trip. Taken right outside the United Muslim Masjid, South Philly. Hasselblad 501 C/M, Ilford Delta Pro 100 ISO. Hand-held, available light.
