This month’s program: “Growing Up in and Out of Islam”
“I grew up a Muslim, as my parents did before me and as their parents did before them. The story of my life takes me through growing up in the world of post-9/11 America and frequently being bullied.”
“I never felt like I belonged as either an Arab/Muslim or an American. I just desperately wanted to fit in with anyone who would take me; I was rejected at every turn.”
