As we celebrate Black History Month, the imam of Harlem’s historic Malcolm Shabazz Mosque explains projects underway that promote community and dialogue.
A community of primarily African-American Muslims in New York, the Malcolm Shabazz Mosque in Harlem has been led by Imam Izak-el Pasha since 1993.
