AMERICAN JIHADIST - 2010 SLAMDANCE PREMIERE

What makes a person willing to kill and die for their religion ?
What social, economic and political environments create
the mindset of a Jihadist, especially an American one?
American JIhadist is a look at militant Islam through the
eyes of an American who fought for it.

THE LIFE AND TIMES OF ISA ABDULLAH ALI

Isa Abdullah Ali, aka Clevin Raphael Holt, is intriguing
because he grew up in the ghettos of America’s capitol
and was surrounded by physical and psychological violence
from the very beginning. American Jihadist looks at what
role violence and a lack of hope for the future play in the
development of radicalism. The film reaches beyond easy
labels to grasp the nuances behind one man’s decision to
fight for his religion.
