I’m always stopped and searched” – Nadiya Hussain
“I’ve always been nervous about travelling to America because there isn’t one time that I’ve been to America and I haven’t been stopped in searches,” Nadiya told Metro.co.uk
The presenter, whose new show, Nadiya’s American Adventure, launches next week on BBC, says her past experiences of arriving and leaving the US heightens her anxiety. Nadiya and other celebrities have been vocal about their experiences of living with anxiety and criticism they face which can deter other sufferers from seeking help.
She added that “People aren’t always compassionate about the fact that people of all races, religions, genders and financial situations can have mental health issues.”
Could this be happening to her at random or because she is black skinned?
