Farrah Zahir

Farrah is stubborn and has a bit of a streak as a troublemaker, frequently putting her at odds with her levelheaded and risk-averse parents. She depends on her younger sister Aliya and her boyfriend Kamal for backup, as they are the two people who understand her plights the best. She is a criminal justice major in college and hopes to go into law, and is a prominent member in the feminist society and Muslim students' union. Despite her booksmarts, she still has a lot to learn about connecting and negotiating with people. She is distant friends with Gwen, whom she knows from high school, but their differences in personality keep them from growing close.
