Employing an oral history methodology, this research explores the themes of identity, transitions, and diversity as narrated by the participants. Utilizing the theoretical framework of symbolic power to explore conceptions of “whiteness” while simultaneously addressing matters of privilege, and power, the accounts of the participants are placed in conversation with literature as well as concepts associated with symbolic power. Ultimately the findings of this research suggests that the differences among African-American Muslim and immigrant Muslim communities are byproducts of being fundamentally different in who they are historically, and culturally.
