American muslims:United by Trump,divided by race-Chicago season

In December 2017 more than 17,000 Muslims attended the Muslim American Society and the Islamic Circle of North America 16th Annual Convention, one of the largest and most diverse Islamic conventions in North America.

The aim of the event, which was held in McCormick Place in Chicago was to help Muslims in America overcome the new challenges this country now faces while simultaneously overcoming the challenges within their souls. The convention is focused on rejuvenating the souls of Muslims through the love of Islam and consequently revitalise the spirit of Muslims in these inauspicious times.

The convention is an experience which unites Muslims all over the world under one roof to affirm their faith and their role in the domestic and global society.

In this episode Dr. Altaf Husain warns that despite all the uniting factors Muslims have, American Muslim community is divided over ethnic and social lines. He hopes that American Muslims would not be affected by the racist society around them, because they are Muslims.
