Newsday on America to Zanzibar

Here is a Newsday article on the exhibit America to Zanzibar: Muslim Cultures Near and Far, at The Children’s Museum of Manhattan, for which I was the lead academic advisor. It’s a good chance to shout out my friends from high school. “Our goal is to have children deal with differences in a healthy, positive way and encourage them to be inquisitive while exploring the world instead of running away from its differences,” Rashid said, an experience not so different from his years growing up in Elmont.  

Communism is the Opiate of the Masses

This ruling (Don’t Reincarnate Without Permission) really has to be one of the stupidest things I’ve heard. Communism seems to have made the communist leadership a little daft. Marx was close, but wrong. Anything that imbues people with a sense of power can be turned into an opiate for the masses. Technorati Tags: Buddhism, China, communism, reincarnation

It’s amazing what turns up

I went searching for an article entitled “Counterterrorism at Miami Airport” by Ali Mazrui, and found it at Swahili On-line (asante sana). It was attached to an article about Islam in East Africa. Both are worth a read. The link is here. I like Dr. Mazrui’s writings quite a bit because he treats Islam as part of the African cultural landscape, rather than something foreign that can be separated out and potentially removed.
