With negativity in the world rising such as radicalism, racism, and Islamophobia, there is no place that ensures that anyone would be safe from all that is happening globally. The phenomena has unfortunately grasped the entire human race.
It is sad when we hear first-hand experiences from people who themselves are working towards ending injustices that prevail in our society.
Nadia Jamil faced horrible experience at a Restaurant in the UK.
Nadia Jamil, Pakistani actress, and human rights activist, had an unfortunate experience at an Italian restaurant, Don Pasquale in Cambridge, England. Jamil was accompanied by her father when they were denied service due to their ethnicity and their looks.
It is utter disbelief to see such a thing happening with Nadia!
Nadia took to Twitter to share her experience!

The restaurant used the social media website to reply and they denied any discrimination against the actress and her father!
Jamil did not let them go so easily!
You did not welcome us. You snatched menus out of our hands, kicked us out, laughed at us. Screamed at us. Astaghfar https://t.co/PsMMTRUWU1

The restaurant has clearly denied the incident and tried to save face but this has absolutely backfired as Jamil is a well-known personality and her experience has gone viral over the internet!
