Muslim students in the North Country
“In the end of the day I’m a visitor here. This is a house and I’m just a guest. And really you don’t go to someone’s house if you’re not welcome there, invited. You must have this dignity to be like, ‘alright, I guess I’ll see you later. Goodbye, have a good night.’ So that’s what I was starting to feel, like maybe we’re not welcome here, so why stick around?” - student Mostafa Eldbery.
