How Does It Feel to Be a Problem?: Being Young and Arab in America by Moustafa Bayoumi

4.0

---

I love how Mr Bayoumi portrayed the life of 7 young Arabs in America. So poetic and beautiful at the same time. I can feel how devastating it’s like to live in a country they see it as a home but not the other way around. Personally, I love Rasha and Yasmin’s stories - they fought in their own ways and I root for them.

Being a certain country/race’s descendant can be tough and political. I wish this world didn’t work that cruel.
