Well now…you learn something new every day. Thanks for that.
(I work in a school district with an overwhelmingly Hispanic population. There are over 50 kids in my district with the first name Jamal and only one of them has an Arabic last name. Most of the others have Hispanic last names. I never knew the name was actually Arabic in origin.)
That’s interesting too! I live in West Los Angeles and the only Jamal I know is Iranian. Looking online though, except for the murdered journalist Jamal Kashoggi, I’m seeing mostly Black sports stars. So, still racist, as expected.
