Disclaimer: Some names have been changed to protect their identity, but the events shared below are true.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Once there was a little boy named Deep, meaning light, who started school in a new country (the US) for the first time. Each day his principal asked him to remove his head covering called Patka<\/em>. The principal said she was curious about how he tied it. Each day, he obliged, not recognizing the principal\u2019s fear. He wished that ended there. But in the next grade, the curiosity reached a new height. He would get pushed into the girl\u2019s bathroom, teased by others who didn\u2019t look like him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
