Today, I'm thrilled to reconnect with Aymann Ismail, award-winning journalist and the visionary behind the PBS documentary American Muslims: A History Revealed. Beyond the groundbreaking stories from the series, our conversation takes a deeply personal turn. Aymann opens up about his new book, 'Becoming Baba,' which explores his journey of self-discovery, his experiences with dating, and how they've shaped his perspectives on love and identity. We also discuss the values he hopes to instill in his children, weaving together reflections on faith, culture, and what it means to leave a meaningful legacy. We revisit stories from the documentary, including the extraordinary tale of Yarrow Mamout, a Muslim enslaved in the 1700s who became a respected figure in Georgetown. Yarrow's story powerfully reminds us of Islam's long history in America and the contributions of Black Muslims to our shared heritage. Exciting News!! Aymann Ismail's new book, Becoming Baba, is now available for pre-sale! Reserve your copy here.

Aymann Ismail is an accomplished journalist with a deep passion for stories that pertain to American Muslims, a passion that is explored in the upcoming docuseries “American Muslims: A History Revealed”. Join us in this episode as we discuss the history of Muslims in the US, journalism as a Muslim, and a deep dive into the history of the only food created exclusively by American Muslims: the Bean Pie!

Aymann Ismail, staff writer at Slate, talks about his campaign season reporting on Muslim and Arab-American voters, the "uncommitted" movement, and how it affected turnout for Vice President Harris. 

Slate staff writer Aymann Ismail gets “On the Call” with host Kai Wright to share his reporting on the “uncommitted” Democrats pushing Kamala Harris for an arms embargo on Israel — and the awkward scene he found at the Republican National Convention. Plus, they talk about the nominee's notorious “I'm speaking” moment at a rally in Detroit in response to interruptions from pro-Palestinian protestors, and the work the Harris-Walz campaign has to do to engage voters who are dismayed at the White House response to Israel's war in Gaza.Companion listening: A 9/12 Story: ‘I Forgot I Was a Muslim Kid'Ismail talks about his post-9/11 childhood in northern New Jersey, and what he learned about his identity as an adult. How did September 11, 2001, and its aftermath, affect the way anyone perceived as Muslim fit inside the American experiment?  Perhaps you've noticed: the news is newsing in overdrive lately. Notes from America is meeting the moment with an extra podcast drop on Thursdays like this one.

In this episode, Niki, Natalia, and Neil discuss the apparent crisis at scholar Ibram X. Kendi's Center for Antiracist Research.  Support Past Present on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/pastpresentpodcast Here are some links and references mentioned during this week's show:   ·      After amassing tens of millions of dollars in funding, Boston University's Center for Antiracist Research abruptly laid off a third of its staff last week. Natalia referred to historian Holly Brewer's scholarly critique of Kendi's work in this Liberties essay, and Niki referred to extensive right-wing coverage of the issue, like this Fox News piece.     In our regular closing feature, What's Making History: ·      Natalia recommended Aymann Ismail's Slate essay, “Closed Book.” ·      Neil shared about historian Benjamin E. Park's Slate essay, “Sound of Freedom's Tim Ballard Is a Star on the Right. Why Would His Church Denounce Him?” ·      Niki discussed her column for CNN Opinion, “Maren Morris' Powerful Farewell to Country Music.”

On this episode: Jamilah Lemieux, Zak Rosen, and Elizabeth Newcamp are joined by Slate writer, Aymann Ismail, to talk about his piece, Closed Book. He tracked down one of the most challenged books—a health and sexual education book called It's Perfectly Normal—to see why it's being banned. It's “particularly blunt and graphic” yet Aymann was surprised at the feelings of embarrassment and shame surfacing as he read the book. They talk about parent's squeamish feelings when it comes to sexual education, why age-appropriate education is so important, and what these involuntary reactions have to do with book bans.  Recommendations:  Zak: Slow-Cooker Cauliflower, Potato and White Bean Soup Elizabeth: Make your own ‘choose your own adventure' game.

Many of us grew up with rules or customs around food. For Aymann Ismail, a practicing Muslim, that meant not eating pork. But as he got older, he became curious about why eating pork was a line that even less observant Muslims wouldn't cross. So when a new loophole product hit the market, Aymann was faced with a choice — one that brought up questions of faith, tradition, and whether changing your food habits changes who you are.Check out Aymann Ismail's writing and podcasts, and find Leah Koenig's writing and cookbooks on her website.The Sporkful production team includes Dan Pashman, Emma Morgenstern, Andres O'Hara, Johanna Mayer, Tracey Samuelson, and Jared O'Connell.

Slate staff writer Aymann Ismail nearly pulled his first-person piece about postpartum depression and anxiety because it seemingly paled in comparison to pregnancy's physical toll on women. Just two months later, it has gone viral, generated conversations all over the world, and inspired a forthcoming book. We talk about the state of modern journalism, growing up Muslim in the shadow of the World Trade Center, the tyranny of too much information, and how his marriage and fatherhood have regained their footing.

Aymann Ismail (Slate Magazine staff writer) sat down with Bridget for an interview on January 6th 2022, coincidentally, Ismail had been in D.C. on January 6th, 2021, so inevitably their conversation covers the events of that day, including Aymann's sense of the mood of the crowd, what made it different from other Trump rallies, and why many different things can all be true at once about the Capitol riot. They also discuss Aymann's trip to Egypt during the Arab Spring and his coverage of the riots in Minneapolis in 2020, amidst a broader conversation about platforming dangerous ideas & ideologies, 9/11, the Patriot Act and the repercussions within the Muslim community in New York City, the polarization of our two political parties, people who view political violence as an acceptable means of affecting change, Gerrymandering, voter's rights, and they wrap it all up with the biggest mistakes Aymann made as a new father. Be sure to check out Aymann's podcast Scoot Over, a series of conversations about how to build a more inclusive world and what is standing in our way.

There are a lot of things about religion that don't make much sense to the non-believer, like, potentially, dietary laws. Why would a supreme being care whether or not I eat … pork? And the believer would respond: It's more meaningful than God inspecting what's on your plate. Aymann Ismail on bringing your spirituality into the supermarket and trying Impossible Pork for the first time. Michele Dawson Haber and her sister Ruti grew up with a pretty great step-father. But whenever they asked questions about their biological father their mom would be evasive. Then one day Michele and Ruti found out their mom had kept a box full of letters… and their journey began.

There are people who write news, cover current events, and make content…. And then there's Aymann Ismail. Born and raised in Newark, NJ Aymann found his passion for storytelling after spending his school days creating a documentary and winning 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for it. More important than the awards was the topic, a look into the tragic death of a teenage soldier who just had his first child. He lost his life in the so called “War on Terror” and unlike most documentaries at the time on the war it had people who were actually muslim telling the story. From there Aymann ended up making his own education path again in college after his school literally shut down the film program on his first day. He had all kinds of options in his sights to edit, commercials for the biggest companies in the world, boundary pushing music videos or maybe even feature length films! That all changed when he got a job as a journalist covering the underground culture of New York. From there he would create groundbreaking stories on everything from examining being muslim in ways it hadn't ever been before, looking at man hood in today's world, exposing the western journalists bias in favor of israel and not to mention detailing the story behind the store who called the police on George Floyd winning him a Writers Guild Award for Digital News.
