/british muslim here i get pressed at the world in general on a regular basis. try having your teacher say 'you lot are terrorists and the government needs to deal with it' to you in front of a class
um WAT. i get side-eyed just for being brown but to have someone say that to your face?! especially from a teaching position and i just - WHAT. i hope you reported the sala for something.
i study in a really white rich area. literally, the muslims i know have this sort of connection. idk how to explain it but it's sort of like an extended family system where you know every single muslim person and everything about them, regardless of race or age or if you even like them
but lol. he was in a debate with some other students about immigration and then backtracked pretty quickly. bunch of privileged assholes if i ever did see some
it's the same here in hk. we're all from totally different socio-economic backgrounds but you basically know everyone no matter what. if not you, then your parents or relatives or whatever.
