I’m sitting here a little unsure of what to write. I appreciated Mohsin’s story and being able to get insight into a community about which I know very little. However, Mohsin’s accomplishments were well beyond exceptional, which felt like it undercut the point of the story a bit. If someone that accomplished faced these struggles, what about others who don’t go to Oxford or aren’t barristers or any of the other successes Mohsin has had?
