DUBAI: A US-based Muslim teen has been accepted into Stanford University after submitting an application in which he wrote “#BlackLivesMatter” 100 times.
When 18-year-old activist Ziad Ahmed was asked “What matters to you, and why?” on the application form, he repeated the slogan and the risky decision paid off.
On Saturday, Ahmed tweeted out an image of his acceptance letter in a post that has been shared hundreds of times.Main category: OffbeatTags: Ziad AhmedStanford UniversityYale UniversityPrinceston UniversitycollegeBlack Lives Matter
