Please join MEF for a webinar with Husain Haqqani today at 1pm EDT!
The Middle East Forum cordially invites you to a webinar:
South Asian Muslims and the American Experience
with Husain Haqqani
South Asian Muslims comprise a one-quarter of all first-generation Muslim immigrants in the United States and one-sixth of America’s total Muslim population, with the largest number coming from Pakistan. Despite their minority numbers, South Asian Muslims have an outsized U.S. role, raising several questions: how did this come to pass, will it continue, and what are its implications? Where have they excelled and what challenges do they face?
