Mohammed, An Igbo-American Non Muslim, Was Atlanta Mayor by Adelaide2(op):
Mohammed Kasim Reed[1] (born June 10, 1969) is an American attorney and former politician who was the 59th mayor of Atlanta, Georgia's state capital and largest city, from 2010 to 2018.

Mohammed was born in Plainfield, New Jersey,[2] but his family moved to Fulton County, Georgia, when he was an infant.[3] He was born and raised in a United Methodist household. His father had considered converting to Islam and named his son Mohammed Kasim, to the consternation of his minister grandfather.[4] Reed graduated from Fulton County's Utoy Springs Elementary School and Westwood High School, now Westlake High School.[3][5]

According to a DNA analysis, he is a descendant through African ancestral lines from the Igbo people of Nigeria.[6]


Reed attended Howard University in Washington, D.C., graduating in 1991 with a degree in political science.

The DNA analysis is 100% on point. See him clean face like Enugu man. Proper Igbo man from Agbenu, Nkanu. grin

I have crazy people calling my house, hanging up the phone, calling me the Antichrist, saying I'm some form of Muslim. And while I respect Muslims and other faiths, I'm not [a Muslim] and these people are just taking it a bit too far.
He retained his Muslim name even though he was never a Muslim.

Would you know a doc if you see one?

BTW, a DNA analysis is not typically conducted by docs, but by genome-enabled molecular biologists/geneticists or their trained technicians.
