As part of the Conferencias Caribe\u00f1as 11 Series, the Institute of Caribbean Studies of the University of Puerto Rico-Rio Piedras (UPR-RP) presents \u201cMusulmanes africanos en el Caribe y Am\u00e9rica Latina\u201d [African Muslims in the Caribbean and Latin America] by Dr. Michael A. Gomez (Department of History and Department of Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies, New York University). Dr. Bruno Ferrer (Department of History, School of Humanities, UPR-RP) will offer commentary on the lecture. [Dr. Gomez also presented \u201cThe Caribbean Moment:\u00a0 The Caribbean Presence and Contribution to the Unfolding of the African Diaspora in North America\u201d earlier this afternoon (September 18, 2012).]<\/p>\n

The activity will be held on Thursday, September 20, 2012, from 1:00 to 3:30pm at the Manuel Maldonado Denis Amphitheatre in the Carmen Rivera de Alvarado Building (CRA 108), School of the Social Sciences, UPR-RP.<\/p>\n

Description<\/strong>: \u00a0This presentation is based on research examining African Muslims and their descendants in the Americas, focusing on their experiences in Latin America and the Caribbean. Upon arrival to the Americas mostly as slaves, Muslims were able to achieve recognition as individuals and, in some cases, to build spaces of social and economic autonomy. However, their experiences in the Americas were not all the same, as they developed differing reputations in different areas. The presentation examines their circumstances during slavery, their struggle to live their lives as Muslims, the challenges they faced during slavery times, what happened to them after slavery, and the influence they had on local cultures.<\/p>\n

This lecture will be broadcast LIVE online through the following website: http:\/\/www.ustream.tv\/channel\/cc71***<\/a><\/p>\n

Comments and suggestions on the presentation will be welcome at iec-ics@upr.edu<\/a><\/p>\n

For further information, you may call Dr. Humberto Garc\u00eda Mu\u00f1iz, Director, at (787) 764-0000, extension 4212, or write to iec@uprrp.edu<\/a><\/p>\n
