In this series, host Sara Salimi explores a wide range of issues concerning Muslim identity in the West through the lens of a symbol we are all too familiar with: the melting pot. Every episode, a featured guest breaks down one puzzle piece that defines part of the Western Muslim’s journey to God in a society that does not necessarily represent a God-centric lifestyle. Will the puzzle pieces ever come together to create that perfect image?
