Clara's Fruit

16m 47s

During the Jim Crow crow era, Sister Clara Muhammad founded the first Muslim private school system in America, rooted in faith and community. Ninety years later, her great-grandson leads one of the remaining schools in Atlanta. Through archival footage, student vignettes, and intimate interviews, the film honors her enduring legacy in Black and Muslim education.
