Being a Christian, I developed an interest in understanding the Islamic religion ad the various beliefs that they hold onto. I, therefore, choose to interview a fellow workmate who was a Muslim. I asked him to give me the various beliefs and practices that they hold onto in their religion. After work, I requested him to accompany us to a food court where we shared various beliefs of our religions as we passed the time at the food court having a drink.  The interview was open. I conducted it in a free manner as we carry on with our talk on the various religious beliefs among the various religions that exist.  I was curious to note the differences and similarities that can be compared to our Christian beliefs.

The protests after the death of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd and the start of the ‘Black Lives Matter Movement’ have led to the focus on diversity and inclusion for all ethnic communities in the United States and the whole world. The fight for equality and inclusion has prompted and pushed for the issue of reparations for African Americans due to the enslavement.
