There was an law passed long before I was born that took many rights from our Irish people like voting, being able to defend ourselves with weapons, receiving an education, and enrolling in colleges, gaining employment.

    Before I moved to America with my parents at the age of twenty-three, I lived in China where people spoke the same language and shared a similar background. Immigrating to America was a very shocking news because I was well adjusted to my previous lifestyle and that everything in America was completely different.

I am proud to come to this one of the greatest city in the world, however, there was a time I was questioning myself…

    While I found our discussions of Buddhism interesting, part of the discussion I was looking forward to the most was talking to him about his experiences of traveling to America from Sri Lanka.
