It follows the musical journey of jazz pianist, composer, and mentor Yusuf Salim from his early years immersed in the Baltimore jazz scene to his transformative contributions to the cultural and musical life in Durham, NC, and beyond. Although plagued by racism and other challenges, Salim's faith in Islam created guiding principles of love and unity that informed his music and his relationships with budding artists and inspired his development of safe community spaces for racial harmony.
