Muslims have been part of American society since the founding of the Republic. Yet, relatively little is known about their lives and their roles in American society. This important new book by Dr. Debbie Almontaser, a veteran educational leader from New York City, sheds light on the experiences and contributions of Muslim principals. Through their stories we learn both about the challenges they face, particularly in the aftermath of 9/11, and how they navigate barriers related to prejudice, pernicious stereotypes, and xenophobia. For educators and others who recognize the potential for education to serve as a force for justice and tolerance, this book will be an invaluable resource.

Debbie Almontaser was the founding and former principal of the Khalil Gibran International Academy in Brooklyn, New York. A 25-year veteran of the NYC Public School System, she taught and served as a director in special education and inclusion, trained teachers in literacy, and served as a multicultural specialist and diversity advisor. Currently she is the Founder and CEO of Bridging Cultures Group Inc and a Professor at the College of Staten Island's School of Education in the Post Masters Advanced Certificate Program for Leadership in Education.
