Site Update

Rachel from Velveteen Rabbi got me to write a piece for this important website.  My name is islamoyankee | My Name Is Me. I lived through 9/11. My Muslim identification became more important. I read an article about the two things the French fear/hate: Americans and Muslims. The author of the article coined the term “islamoyankee.” I appropriated it to describe me as being a proud New Yorker and committed Muslim.
