N1 - This publication is based on a lecture presented on December 14, 2009; Includes bibliography (p. 41-43) N2 - President Barack Hussein Obama began his first term in office with aggressive pronouncements of a change in the course of America's relations with the Muslim world. One year into his presidency, Obama's policies toward US Muslims appear to continue on the path set by his predecessor.

This paper will explore the growth of the Muslim community in the United States, the place of activist organizations in the community, their responses to assimilation, and the prospects for community-government dynamics ER -
