Voices in the Margins: African Muslims and Caribbean Heritage

In this episode of Dis a Fi Mi History, host Wendy Aris and guest Suleiman Bulbulia delve into the overlooked story of African Muslims in the Caribbean, with a particular focus on Muhammad Kaba Saganuhu — an enslaved scholar who penned a 50-page Arabic manuscript in Jamaica. This episode illuminates how themes of colonialism, Arabic literacy, faith, and cultural memory have influenced resistance, identity, and the broader Caribbean heritage. Through archival discoveries and personal reflections, we emphasize the vital contributions of Muslims to Caribbean history and the ongoing research that aims to reshape public understanding of this rich heritage.                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Mr. Suleiman Bulbulia Co-Founder / Director at Barbados Halal Experience, said that Barbados is a small island in the Caribbean, and that the Islamic society has a long history in Barbados Co-Founder / Director at Barbados Halal Experience added that the Indians were the first to convert to Islam in Barbados, and that Muslims had come to Barbados to enhance their living                                     conditions                                                                                       https://www.caribbeanmuslims.com/author/suleiman History Podcasts https://blog.feedspot.com/history_podcasts/ Caribbean History Podcasts https://blog.feedspot.com/caribbean_history_podcasts/ Caribbean Podcasts https://blog.feedspot.com/caribbean_podcasts/ History Podcasts For Historians https://blog.feedspot.com/history_podcasts_for_historians/   Follow: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/berkshirehalleppingpress/ Morning Journal Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CXMTL3NV Genealogy Workbook: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09NRHG3M3 Prayer Journal: https://a.co/d/bfSdIl0 Devotional Journal: https://a.co/d/8K3C8Hk Support The Podcast https://ko-fi.com/disafimihistory/tip Great Research Resource https://www.ancestorsofparadise.com/ Clothes https://effystyle.goaffpro.com/ Reservations for Barbados https://diaspora-discoveries.com/reservations   Theme Music "Africa" is modern ethnic track with fresh chords, African vocal, orchestra.
