Time has named the former Irving student arrested for bringing a clock to school one of its ‘30 Most Influential Teens of 2015.’

Ahmed Mohamed, 14, was arrested by Irving police in September after he brought a homemade digital clock to school that was mistaken for a bomb by Irving MacArthur High School faculty. The subsequent fallout made international headlines.

Time named Mohamed to its influential teens list, released on Tuesday, and said Mohamed “kicked off a national debate over racial profiling.”
