Customs agents denied a Muslim activist from Australia entry to the U.S. for a speaking engagement and deported her to London on Wednesday.
Yassmin Abdel-Magied was scheduled to speak at the PEN World Voices Festival in New York for an event called “The M Word: No Country For Young Muslim Women,” but customs agents denied her entry to the U.S. when she arrived at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, according to The Associated Press.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Abdel-Magied, who now lives in London, had the wrong type of visa and would not legally be able to receive payment for her speaking engagement.
