The Muslim faith continues to convert many average African-Americans, who say they are attracted by Islam's emphasis on equality, discipline and family.
One convert Sekou Jackson says, "The unique history African-Americans have faced, we're primed for accepting Islam,"
"When someone comes to you with a message that everyone is equal, that the only difference is the deeds that they do, of course people who have been oppressed will embrace that message," said Jackson "It's a message of fairness."
