The Community is a great book club book. Lots of historical references, philosophies and facts. Very comprehensive. Confusing at times because the narrative mixes with the history a lot. But very informative. I think the history presented almost overshadows the author's personal story. The story itself is told well and you can sympathize with the parents and Jamiyla. The explanation for why the parents wanted to be Muslim and isolate themselves is very relatable, as well as, the feeling of betrayal felt by Jamiyla. It is humbling for parents to be able to admit their mistakes and faults. I had not previously heard of Imman Issa and I'm glad he is in prison. It's interesting you still have people that follow his teachings despite him being a horrible man.
