Does anyone know how Somali teens are coping in school?

Do you think the hate will die down/end by next year?

Nope

 

[Sigmundd]

Nope

Sadly I agree. If tiktok is still there the hate will get worse and worse. And even if tiktok gets shut everyone is just going to move to instagram reels which is even worse than tiktok. We might get China treatment who got hundred years of mockery. I fear that could be us online.

Seems like this is only like an American/UK thing

In Sweden, I’ve never been insulted for my ethnicity

@Moon- why did you like what that ashraf said? so you think what I said was lies? I lsweared by Allah disappointed you insisted on agreeing with him. Didn't expect that from you of all people.

From what my knowledge has obtained. The boys are in groups attacking the somali girls in class and so they feel defenceless. One of them tried to defend themselves but the bullies laughed and continued. Somali boys also joined in the hate SMH

I didn’t know what area you grew up in but when I was in high school the Somali kids were a menace. They used to rush the madow kids if any of them tried anything and rob the local shops.

If any of the Somali kids got in trouble 100 other Somali youths would back you.

Oh OK thought he was old so I got annoyed..... I have cousins that are in school. I know it's different for others but if you live in an area where there aren't many somalis than thsrs a problem.

BUMP.. just read of a random attack on a somali school.boy on this forum. Please everyone check up on your siblings and other younger family members and don't turn a blind eye on the xenophobia.

Unfortunately from what I know yes. But I noticed is mostly Somali girls that are targetted.

Maybe where you live, but nothing here
