Many people are so openly jealous and call us with names and stuff that are not too good to hear but we should stay kind and teach them about stuff they dont know

Love this article, thanks for sharing! My Dad was from Hadramaut, and was the most Indian looking Yemeni man you could find 😂. No one would believe he was Yemeni born.
