Atte: Male Somali Men living in America!- (School Help)

[gntsol]

I am a female student attending MEtropolitan State University in St. Paul, MN.

I am taking a class called the American Male. Part of the class is writing a paper called Minority Men in America. I have chosen to focus on Somali men. So I have about 20 questions that I am hoping some of you wouldn't mind answering. I will post them here but also if you feel like emailing me, that would be great too!

1. What was life like for you in Africa? What is your culture like?


2. What was it like for you when you first arrived in America? What did you think?


3. What prompted you to come to America? What do you think makes other people come?


4. What do you think of America since you have been here for awhile I am assuming?


5. Who is your country fighting with and why? How long has this been going on?


6. Do you experience prejudice and racism? If so, how often?


7. What are your relations like with existing African-Americans? Do you get along or is there tension, if so why?


8. What do you think about the politics of this country?


9. What do you think about the war we are fighting in the Middle East right now?


10. Are you Muslim, if so, have you experienced any prejudice around your religious beliefs?


11. What role do women play in a Somalian man’s life while in Somalia and how has their role changed in your eyes since coming to America? How has it stayed the same?


12. What do you think of American men? American Women?


13. What are the job prospects like for you here in the States?


14. What do you think of the America education system? The judicial system?


15. What are your personal core values and morals?


16. What are your dreams and goals in life?


17. When I go to Starbucks and I see all the men gathered and talking so passionately, what are you discussing?


18. In your opinion, what is the best Somali restaurant in the Twin Cities?


19. As far as you know, is there a Somali homosexual sub-culture? Is homosexuality frowned upon in your culture?


20. What do you think of the youth today?

What would this mean in English?

Dhago, caadi iska dhig ninyow; this person is sincere and wants some help, you should help them if you could. If not then the least you could d is step outta their way.

WALAALO, all I did was answering her question. She wanted know what he meant and I told her...I was just trying to help the girl out.

Seriously, that isn't the way to conduct survey. I find some of her question very insulting.

Like what do you guys talk about when you sitting at the starbucks? Like all Somali men sit around and waste their time at coffee shops.

Who are you fighting with? Google it....

What prompted you to come to America? All Somalis are fuc.king refugees. What else would have brought us here? Tourism?


What do you think about the war we are fighting in the Middle East right now? Who the f.uck is we?
