A list of micro aggressions to avoid with newly arrived Afghans:
This is a delicate period of transition. As an Afghan American, & an academic who has studied the community, I urge you to avoid certain behaviors. These microaggression can be hurtful for our new neighbors.

This is my message to Canada on Canada Day.
I will not celebrate with picnics and fireworks. I’ll spend the day reflecting, remembering all we have lost and how to move forward.
I ask you to do the same.
