In this interview I sit down with Muslim public intellectual and activist Umar Lee. Umar Lee has appeared on MSNBC, Al Jazeera, Israeli television, BBC Radio, Voice of America, St. Louis Public Radio, St. Louis Public Television, numerous local news broadcasts, and a number of radio programs. His work has been mentioned in the New York Times, Washington Post, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Riverfront Times, as well as other publications. Today we chat about Islam in America, Umar's book "The Rise and Fall of Salafi Dawah in America" as well as what characteristics make Muslims so successful in the United States.
