Ever wonder who that dashing Arab man was in Superbad?  Or the sexy Palestinian, with great hair, in Fast and the Furious?  Remember the intensity of Badran in Munich?  It was none other than, Mousa Kraish: a skilled actor, writer, director, photographer, amongst many other talents.  With a successful blog, AngryHappyArab.com and his new series, You Love I, Kraish is well on his way, breaking stereotypes as he rises.

The holy month of Ramadan marks a period of time dedicated to introspection, self-control, and charity. It is typically spent searching for deeper ways to connect with God, seeking forgiveness, giving back to the community, and spending time with loved ones. 

Zaytuna College began their classes this summer in Berkeley, California. It is the first Muslim College in America “committed to demonstrating, through practice, teaching, and the free exchange of ideas, Islam’s critical role in the modern world.” The college’s motto, “Where Islam meets America,” expresses the great pride the school takes in creating an institution of knowledge based around Islam.
