Ward 6 Minneapolis City Councilman Abdi Warsame, a Somali-American, said it’s encouraging that a Somali man writes the story.

“I think what [K’naan]’s doing is courageous,” Warsame said, adding that he thinks the show will help representation of Somali-American immigrants

He said he respects K’naan, and finds the storyline intriguing. Warsame said he has read parts of K’naan’s script.

The show is fictional, and while it may portray stereotypes, he said community members should keep an open mind.

“You might not like it,” he said. “But HBO is a big deal, and this is an artist from our community that has been given this opportunity.”

While it is fair for the community to be skeptical, concerned community members should wait to see how the show turns out, Warsame said.

“I don’t think [K’naan] would intentionally try to make the community look bad,” he said.

Somalis in the diaspora are beyond qabil. The people protesting this are Hawiye and most were not from Cedar, but the councilman for the area and most of the community activists (MJ) have defended K'naan.

Whatever history you think you know, you can't prove it. Farhan, point is your Hawiye clansmen rioted against their own brother and turned Minneapolis in to Mogadishu. Please sort your people out.

Now you're just making shit up. The kids who got maced and arrested were Hawiye. You don't understand the political dynamics of Minnesota with regards to CVE you lamb shagging kiwi. Abdi Warsame, Abdirizak Bihi, Mohamud Noor and many more MJs have come to the defense of K'naan. I dare you to name powerful Hawiyes who have?

I know atleast 4 hawadle guys that were protesting who got maced. I don't know what this kiwi former USC water boy talking about.

Reiko, you obese cow, people are saying it was based on qabil and organized by mj's, I wouldn't expect you to understand, since you don't have the intellectual capabilities, so just stick to carrying Duchess handbag.
