Again congrats and well done!
She is fully aware of the sacrifice her parents made the blood, sweat and tears they spilled. She gives them a lot credit to her Somali immigrant parents for pushing her and making education a priority in all her interviews. And how they moved her from public school to private school. She also speaks highly of her Somali father.The thing I like and respect her for is what she does with her Non-Profit organization of educating East African girls realizing and how important is to help build your community up instead of tearing them down :clap:

Amira does not come from an average somali family. She comes from a highly educated family. Her mother is educated to masters level and has a really good job. Her great grand father was a famous poet and he educated her grand father. Her father is a millionaire and has his own company. Although her parents are divorced she was bought up really well and given private education where she thrived. We can't compare her to qaxooti kids with illiterate parents.
No such thing as average Somali family....there are lots of successful families who have kids that are not successful they are homeless or in jail. Having successful parents doesn't not guarantee success in most cases it makes people lazy and privileged. We should stop making excuses for someone's success and just congratulate them.

Good for her though, she has the spirit to be someone big :up:
It is the sign of over-achieving, hustling having a clear goal in life and being active and not being lazy.

Right, like I said.

Starting a non-profit IS a sign of privilege AND it is also Ivy bait.

American universities are corporations and they do engage in marketing, the student population is one thing to market. "Look at the accomplishments and/or diversity of our undergraduates."

"A sign of privilege" kulaha :lol:

Why don't you just admit that you are @Payitforward87? Don't be introducing these foreign terms into the Somali lexicon.

The excuses they are making is comical....they can't say congratulations and move on. Homeless people start non-profits ...victims starts nonprofits. All you need to start a nonprofit is time, passion and cause you believe in and last thing you need is funds which you can get from fundraising, government grants or corporate sponsors.

All they need to say is congratulations and move on.... they dismiss how hard she worked and her accomplishments. One of the posts attributed her success to African Americans.

The most important part of non-profit is funding, calm down bro.
