To me, xenophobia is an irrational and unreasonable fear of any foreigners regardless of their race, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. It affects our civilization tremendously by limiting intellectual and cultural exchange and growth, while constantly provoking unnecessary tension and distress among the most defenseless and vulnerable.

Hi Sapphira! I'm in eighth grade at Hopkins and I wanted to join this club to learn more about xenophobia because I realized that it was something very important and urgent. I agree, xenophobia affects our civilization tremendously and should not be limiting people like it is. I'm eager to learn everything that I can about this issue in any way I am able to. Thank you for welcoming me and letting me participate in SAX!
