Indigenous Muslims: We Exist | I hope to honor my seemingly forgotten Muslim Native-American identity with this challenge.
These roots were with me all along as part of the Fitra; the natural way of being, leaving nature untouched to grow independently.
Humans bend nature; crafting wood, weaving fibers, or bending ourselves to fit or stray from society, which bends too.
we often don't see our roots until we dig, it feels raw to embrace who you ‘are’ & who you’re always meant to ‘be.’
