A few days ago, I invited you to start building relationships by saying a simple “Hello”.
Amal Kassir encourages you to take it one step further by asking a stranger, “What’s you name?”
Watching the news, it seems like ethnic divides are ever-deepening. But how can we solve these complicated problems when each side lives in fear of the other? The answer is simple, argues Syrian-American poet Amal Kassir – it starts with, “What’s your name?”
Amal, a young Muslim-American and native Coloradan, found a platform for her voice growing up working in her family’s restaurant. She has been writing poetry since she was a child and has performed in eight countries, sharing her verse everywhere from youth prisons to orphanages to refugee camps.
If you struggle to meet new people because of any reason, send us an email and we’ll walk with you on the journey.
