Two Muslims, Playing Against Stereotype

Zeba Khan was born and raised in a middle-class home in Toledo, Ohio, and for nine years attended the local Jewish day school, The Hebrew Academy, going to morning minyan every day. She graduated in 1993. She says she would have continued on with her Jewish education but the school only went through sixth grade. I knew Hebrew better than most of my classmates she recalled in a recent interview, and I wanted a bat mitzvah.
