The "30 Mosques" guys visit "The Ground Zero Mosque"

Former Boing Boing guestbloggers Bassam and Aman (who’ve been working on a documentary film in Pakistan) hit the road for Ramadan, on a new “30 Mosques in 30 Days” trip around the United States. First stop, the so-called “ground zero mosque” in New York City:

Dude, it’s just a mosque.

Bassam and I walked into Park 51, the site of the so called “Ground Zero Mosque,” expecting to feel transformed, knowing the fact that I was praying inside the place that’s practically been mentioned in the news every 20 minutes.

But all it felt like – was praying inside a mosque.
