Everyone has their idea of what it is to be Muslim in America. But, after a terrorist attack rocks the US and anti-Islamic sentiment stirs, three Black Muslim girls create a space where they can shatter assumptions and share truths the country doesn't see.
THEIR VOICES MATTER
Sabriya ...has trained hard for summer auditions. When everything is canceled after a terrorist attack, she takes solace in writing. When she realizes her private online journal You Truly Assumed isn't so private, she learns there are many out there like her, hoping to be heard. Including...
Zakat ...can't wait to leave her hometown to pursue her dreams. But, her family fears for her safety. With her best friend growing distant, finding a kindred voice online seems like fate. But when, her own haven is vandalized, Zakat wonders if anywhere will ever feel safe again.
Farah ...wants nothing to do with visiting the father who abandoned her. But, sometimes a change of place brings a change of heart-for Farah, for the boy she might love, and for the new friends she meets through You Truly Assumed.
When threatening comments and emails try to silence them, the three must decide, shut things down and stay safe...or risk it all and let their voices be heard.
