American Muslims: A History Revealed (PBS TV series)

The six-part documentary explicitly claims that Muslims played a notable, often-overlooked role in U.S. history. The framing is not just that Muslims were present, but that they were “integral” to the American story. It presents this as "untold histories" and "reexamines well-known chapters of U.S. history through stories often overlooked," emphasizing that Muslims have been part of American life since before or during the nation's founding —— not as central political founders, but as a presence in the population and in intellectual/religious freedom debates.
