This is just one of the many warm lovely and helpful tips that Wajahat Ali and other children of immigrants receive on a daily basis. Go back where exactly? Fremont California where he grew up but is now an unaffordable place to live? Or Pakistan the country his parents left behind a half-century ago? Growing up living the suburban American dream young Wajahat devoured comic books (devoid of brown superheroes) and fielded well-intentioned advice from uncles and aunties. (Become a doctor!) He had turmeric stains under his fingernails was accident-prone suffered from OCD and wore Husky pants but he was as American as his neighbors with roots all over the world. Then while Ali was studying at University of California Berkeley 9 11 happened. Muslims replaced communists as America's enemy #1 and he became an accidental spokesman and ambassador of all ordinary unthreatening things Muslim-y. Now a middle-aged dad Ali has become one of the foremost and funniest public intellectuals in America. In Go Back to Where You Came From he tackles the dangers of Islamophobia white supremacy and chocolate hummus peppering personal stories with astute insights into national security immigration and pop culture. In this refreshingly bold hopeful and uproarious memoir Ali offers indispensable lessons for cultivating a more compassionate inclusive and delicious America.
