Celebration Speeches - ‘OnScreen’ by Mohammed Daher

good evening everyone im mohammed daher from lebanon. Beofre I came to the uk i though i would have problems with everyone. I couldnt imagine myself in all the places that i went to and all the people that i met. I was in a restaurant one day having my lunch and there was a woman on the same table who asked me to watch her baby for 10 minutes, i know thats boring to be a baby sitter but thats not the point. My arabic features are obvious, and before i came here i thought the people, when they will see us, would run away saying terrorist or something like that, because thats what i was asked about in my visa application. What i want to say is that we must stop the previous judgments and let the kind people of wales, scotland, london, lebanon and the world be onscreen. Thank you.
