Muslims in Muncie 

 

The Center for Middletown Studies served as a partner on the Muslims in Muncie Oral History and Documentary Project.   A Virginia B. Ball Center for Creative Inquiry project headed by Elizabeth Agnew (Philosophy and Religious Studies) and undertaken in collaboration with the Islamic Center of Muncie, Muslims in Muncie produced an hour-long documentary and archived twenty-two oral history interviews that examine the experiences of local Muslim residents from the 1960s to the 2010s.  The project was the recipient of the 2019 Award for Oral History in a Non-Print Format from the Oral History Association and the Alice Smith Prize in Public History from the Midwestern History Association.
