Muslim Take-Over of American Culture - Is it integration or infiltration?

StartFragment

In this episode of WISE Women with Daisy Khan, Dr. Daisy Khan and her co-host Susanna Keiserman explore Muslim culture and integration in America, addressing misconceptions around cultural takeover. They explain what culture truly means and how Muslim Americans have contributed to the United States by sharing food, fashion, traditions, and religious practices into the broader culture that have enriched society rather than threatened it. Dr. Khan distinguishes between assimilation, where people give up their original culture, and integration, where multiple identities coexist.

Through examples like halal cuisine and modest fashion brands, the episode highlights how integration allows multiple identities to coexist without losing heritage. Dr. Khan distinguishes between assimilation, which requires discarding original culture, and integration, which supports diversity. This episode challenges common fears and sheds light on the dynamic process of cultural blending, offering a clearer understanding of Muslim American culture and its vital role in shaping a diverse America.
