Today We Honor Omar ibn Said Omar ibn Said was an educated Muslim African born about 1770 in Futa Toro (modern Senegal). Said was an Islamic scholar and a Fula who spent 25 years of his life studying with prominent Muslim scholars, learning a range of subjects including mathematics, astronomy, business, and theology. He was enslaved and transported to Charleston, South Carolina. Not long after his arrival and sale to a local planter, Said escaped and made his way to Fayetteville, North Carolina, where he was imprisoned after entering a Christian church to pray. He gained attention for writing on the walls of his prison cell in Arabic. Although ibn Said was converted to Christianity on December 3, 1820, there are dedications to Muhammad written in his Bible, and a card dated 1857 on which he wrote Surat An-Nasr, a short sura which refers to the conversion of non-Muslims to Islam 'in multitudes.' Literary analysis of ibn Said's autobiography suggests that he wrote it for two audiences, the white literates who sought to exploit his conversion to Christianity and Muslim readers who would recognize Qur'anic literary devices and subtext and understand his position as a fellow Muslim living under persecution. Today Grammy Award Winner, and A MacArthur “Genius Grant” recipient Rhiannon Giddens @rhiannongiddens (co-founded of the Grammy Award-winning Carolina Chocolate Drops) is bringing the life story of Omar ibn Said to opera. Giddens teamed with composer Michael Abels (Get Out, Us) to score ‘Omar,’ “based on his life and autobiography. ‘Omar,’ is premiering on Friday, May 27 in Charleston, South Carolina at the Spoleto Festival USA.

If you haven't heard of these ladies, Our Native Daughters is one of the most important musical projects going on right now. Consisting of Rhiannon Giddens, Amythyst Kiah, Leyla McCalla, and Allison Russel bring the whole weight of history into their music. I had the opportunity to see them the other night at the National Museum for African American History and Culture and I am still in awe of what we performed on stage. That black girl banjo magic is real y'all and you should check out their new album on Spotify!
