PBS America at a Crossroads - The Mosque in Morgantown (2009 HDTV SoS)

Originally aired: 2009.06.15
Note: This is the final part in the series - all 20 programs have now been released.

"Working in Pakistan after September 11, 2001, former Wall Street Journal reporter Asra Nomani (shown) faced a double shock: a surprise pregnancy and abandonment by the Pakistani man she thought would be her husband, then the murder of her close friend Daniel Pearl at the hands of Muslim extremists. Still reeling, and with a son to raise, she returned to her hometown in West Virginia to find that the mosque had been taken over by men she viewed as extremists. This documentary chronicles what happens when she decides to fight back — angering even the mosque's moderates — telling a story of competing paths to social change, American identity, and the nature of religion itself."
