Attending college and medical school at Yale and Harvard...would shield me from racism and bigotry?

I don't blame her for not liking being painted with a broad brush.

But I'm not trying to force anyone to agree with her, as it would probably have the opposite effect.

My experiences are not isolated. A recent study in the American Journal of Bioethics found that 24 percent of Muslim physicians have experienced religious discrimination in the workplace.

This election year has made it harder to be a Muslim in America. Republican front-runner Donald Trump has advocated for registering Muslims inside the United States and banning those of us who reside abroad. Unfortunately, the majority of Republican Party members agree with him and the number of hate crimes against Muslims have tripled in recent weeks. Yet, I also recognize that Muslims are just America's newest "outsiders." Throughout our history, Catholics, Irish, Italians, women, African-Americans, Jews, Latinos and gays have all been targets of nativist fear-mongering. Many of these groups still face significant prejudice today, and hospitals are not immune from such discrimination, whether implicit or explicit.

Suggest she ship her ass back to the ME... where she can look and act like everybody else. Then she won't have to be bothered by any kind of bigotry.
