As Americans

Challenges that STILL Exist for Minorities:
America has many problems, including racism and discrimination. Honestly, where is the "Melting Pot" in America? As a Muslim American i have seen discrimination all over the world, it is pathetic because these challenges between minorities are hurtful and just plan ridiculous. For example, many people in America see Mexicans as immigrants. Black people as slaves. Muslims as terrorists, etc. America is never going to be a perfect country, just because people in America are racist and do not get along with others. I know a American Muslim girl that applied for either Hollister or Abrecrombie, but the point is she wears hijab, and applied. Whenever the manager was telling her about the uniform, she said you cannot wear the hijab. This is a right to freedom of religion, so this is still a challenge that still goes on in America, not only for Muslims, but also for other religions and gender. Another huge example that happens everyday is that people still threaten Muslims for being terrorists. I feel that women still have struggles because of men might say to them. One day i was looking through pictures, or even conversations, and I saw men making fun of women because they "should stay in the kitchen" or "make me a sandwich" these kinds of talks still get to women in general because women are strong, and they do not only stay in the kitchen, but also fight for their rights.
