Eight-year-old Mohammad had just moved to Ireland and entered
his classroom on the first day of school.
"What's your name?" asked the teacher.
"Mohammad," he replied.
"You're in Ireland now," replied the teacher, "so
from now on you will be known as Frank."
Mohammad returned home after school.
"How was your day, Mohammad?" his mother asked.
"My name is no longer Mohammad. I'm in Ireland now
and my name is Frank."
"What?" she said. "Are you ashamed of your
name? Are you trying to dishonor your parents, your heritage, your
religion? Shame on you!" And his mother beat him.
Then she called his father, who beat him again.
The next day when Mohammad returned to school the teacher saw all of his
bruises.
"What happened to you, Frank?" she asked.
"Well shortly after becoming Irish I was attacked by
two fucking Arabs."
