Many in the Somali community believe those young people left the US in search for their identity after living a life of poverty and racism in Minneapolis.
“We’re an obvious minority here, and have a different religion and culture,” Abdiaziz Warsame, 37, an interpreter and youth counselor, told the Times.
“So people feel a high level of racism.”
