Notes
This Smithsonian object record provides a public museum anchor for Noble Drew Ali and the Moorish Science Temple of America in twentieth-century African American religious and urban history.
Why this source matters
MoorOfUS uses this source to treat modern Moorish identity movements as documented modern public history rather than as medieval evidence. It is useful for pages that discuss American public memory, imagery, and movement records.
Use with caution
An object record can document an image, date, subject, and collection context. It does not settle private identity, membership, ancestry, or legal questions.
