A Mount Holyoke student has written a deeply moving and highly intelligent reflection on what it means to be a minority in societies where tolerance seems to be in short supply. Saltanat Ansari is a junior from Pakistan and her insights into the recent violence in Lahore are those of a mature scholar. The essay was published in Dawn one of Pakistan’s most influential newspapers. We should applaud Saltanat for her commitment to clear analysis in desperate times.
