SUMMARY:All-American Muslim Girl Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:
 Muslim Journeys series: Discussion of Nadine Jolie 
 Courtney's All-American Muslim Girl, led 
 by Leila Tarakji (MSU)\n
 Thu. Oct. 28, 7pm HYBRID 
 EVENT\n
 \n
 Allie Abraham has it all going 
 for her-she's a straight-A student, with good 
 friends and a close-knit family, and she's dating 
 cute, popular, and sweet Wells Henderson. 
 One problem: Wells's father is Jack Henderson, 
 America's most famous conservative shock 
 jock...and Allie hasn't told Wells that her 
 family is Muslim. It's not like Allie's religion 
 is a secret, exactly. It's just that her 
 parents don't practice and raised her to keep 
 her Islamic heritage to herself. But as Allie 
 witnesses ever-growing Islamophobia in her 
 small town and across the nation, she begins 
 to embrace her faith-studying it, practicing 
 it, and facing hatred and misunderstanding for 
 it. Who is Allie, if she sheds the façade of 
 the "perfect" all-American girl? 
 What does it mean to be a "Good Muslim?" 
 And can a Muslim girl in America ever truly 
 fit in?\n
 \n
 \n
 ALL-AMERICAN MUSLIM GIRL is 
 a relevant, relatable story of being caught 
 between two worlds, and the struggles and hard-won 
 joys of finding your place. \n
