My Story As A Muslim Immigrant In America: Psychiatry, Social Activism, And Service

Basheer Ahmed's remarkable life is rooted in fertile soil that cultivated a passion for learning and a desire to give back to the world. But, this man wasn't created all at once. Ahmed's amazing story spans many decades, continents, cultures, and languages, and serves as a testament to the interconnectedness of all people. Inspired by his mother's own academic pursuits, Ahmed launched an epic journey for his education. He left India for Pakistan, then the United Kingdom and the United States, where he immigrated to in 1968 to practice psychiatry. Along the way, he started a family and devoted himself to teaching and service as means of reinvesting the spiritual riches life had bestowed upon him. With candor and warmth, Ahmed shares his story in the hope that future generations may also find fertile soil, value education and spirituality, and grow up in a world full of love and acceptance.
