Description
The inspiring and critically acclaimed all-American story of faith family hard work and perseverance by Olympic fencer activist New York Times bestselling author and Time "100 Most Influential People" honoree Ibtihaj Muhammad
At the 2016 Olympic Games Ibtihaj Muhammad smashed barriers as the first American to compete wearing hijab and she made history as the first Muslim American woman to win a medal. But before she was an Olympian activist and entrepreneur Ibtihaj was a young outsider trying to find her place.
Growing up in suburban New Jersey Ibtihaj was often the only African American Muslim student in her class. When she discovered and fell in love with fencing a sport most popular with affluent young white people she stood out even more. Rivals and teammates often pointed out Ibtihaj's differences telling her she would never succeed. Yet she powered on rising above bigotry and other obstacles on the path to pursue her dream.
Ibtihaj's inspiring journey from humble beginnings to the international stage is told in her own words and enhanced with helpful advice and never-before-published photographs. Proud is an all-American tale of faith family hard work and self-reliance.>
