It really sucks how often MENA (Middle Eastern and North African) is excluded from race/ethnicity. I know federally it's categorized as "white," but the racism I've faced growing up and my very ethnic name beg to differ lolol. LSAC also has a MENA category. I would really love to also identify as MENA and find other MENA students. We are such an underrepresented group, and I am curious how other MENA people are writing about their background in essays and what you guys are selecting under race. I personally do not want to use white because I am not... and the whole categorization of MENA as white is super outdated. This was a ramble!!! But 7sage staff if u see this can u plz add MENA category <333 and also if ur MENA as well if you can comment below what your identifying as ( I know LSAC has MENA but not sure about individual law schools) and how u plan to discuss ur background greatly appreciated
