Cultural antimuslim tensions should be more frequent in Europe compared to the US,
If you can, please selfquarantaine for a while when you come back.
I went to New York in 2014 with my family and I didn’t experience any racism at all, everyone was so friendly and easy going, it was a pleasure and my mom wears a headscarf mind you.
Then back here in Germany I experienced discrimination right at the airport.
Contrary to popular belief, in my experience there’s more racism and discrimination here in Europe than in America, especially as a muslim.
Hope you’ll have a great time and be safe!

I agree about the racism against muslims part,there is also a problem with how other cultures are integrated and it results with people sticking to their own kind.
But yeah whenever someone in certain circles makes an extremely racist comment about muslims and i comment that person about it almost always results in everyone of the surrounding people taking a step back and not daring to interfere,like racism against muslims is sometimes the accepted norm.
Depends on the area you live in ofcourse.

As far as Covid goes - cases are up, though it's largely because of a major increase in people being tested, and deaths from it are way down anyway. |

The current situation is already worse and it probably hasn't even peaked yet.

you've been replied to a couple times but noone showed this graph so I guess I'm tossing in my two cents as well:
As you can see the % of positive tests has increase quite drastically in the last month. This increase in cases cannot be explained by increased testing.
...
As long as you're not black or hispanic you should be fine.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
Arab are considered as White in USA ?

No, but blacks and Hispanics seems to be the most targeted by American cops, politicians and judges. Seriously, at this point you'd probably be a lot safer where you are. |
What makes arabs different from hispanics on sight?
But I saw that we were considered as white by the US
Yes it’s true, in the US demographic census we count as white people.
But arabs are a diverse race our skin color range from south european to north african so some arabs might be considered black/ lightskin, some look indian, some look hispanic and some look south european.
I myself got mistaken for a Italian quite often, so it’s all good until they hear my name lol.
