The Quincy Tea Party is pleased to host historian, author, and national speaker William J. “Bill” Federer for a presentation on the History of Islam.
Federer is the author of more than 30 books, including the widely read What Every American Needs to Know About the Qur’an, and is known for his primary-source approach to American and world history. He hosts the daily American Minute radio feature and the television program Faith in History.
Event Details
The presentation comes at a moment when several American cities and states have elected Muslim mayors and representatives, and when local officials have faced pushback for raising questions about related cultural and political trends. Federer’s talk will focus on the historical record rather than current politics, giving attendees a grounded framework for understanding the topic.
