- The Twin Cities is home to one of the largest populations of Somali immigrants in Minnesota, and while this population has become an integral part of the community fabric, its members are facing increasing bigotry and continued lower socioeconomic outcomes than the community’s white residents. Ahmed Ismail Yusuf, author of “The Lion’s Binding Oath,” sits with Susan Saulny to discuss his experience as a first-generation Somali-American writer and teacher, as well as the region’s changing identity.

Disappointed in some of these comments, but sadly not shocked by the ignorance. Somali people or any people that come to America are not simply given handouts, they work hard to be here. They come from a country where they face many struggles that many people in America can't and won't understand (fortunately). Because of this, they have to work much harder. Also, facing societal pressures that many "Americans" put on them to assimilate... THEY DONT NEED TO ASSIMILATE INTO AMERICAN CULTURE, it is brave of them to hold onto their culture and who they are

Modern Americans: we came from shit but living in a used to be safe America was not good enough. Instead of demanding for rights maybe they could be a little grateful
Yes, it is good for you to learn to be grateful after all.

What are you talking about? We’ve been interfering in their homeland for decades in order to control and steal their rich resources. Your tax dollars are WASTED on fake war on terror which created a mass exodus of those countries into ours. You Islamophobe hypocrites are to blame and now you’re reaping what you’ve sowed…
