It’s sad that discrimination is still prominent during this day and age of information and technology. But, because of those advances, the world is able to see it as often as they’d like, now. Delta Airlines was exposed for doing this, yet again.
Obviously, tensions have been high between the United States and several Middle Eastern countries for some time. Since 9/11, much focus has been placed on Arabs, especially those who believe in Muslim practices. But, of course, the actions of one person is not on everyone.
Adam Saleh was the latest Delta Airlines victim and he used his celebrity status to fight back. He filmed his entire ordeal and the internet has taken it and ran with it. Now, #BoycottDelta is the leading trending topic, after seeing how they treated him.
