Powerful stories of such strong young women. I understand that the book is geared towards a younger audience, but I do wish that some of the stories went a little deeper.

“Many people think refugees should feel only 2 things: Gratitude toward the country which granted them asylum, and relief to be safe. I don’t think many people understand the tangle of emotions that comes from leaving behind everything you know. They are not only feeling violence, which is why so many are forced to leave and what’s shown on the news, but they are escaping their countries—their beloved homes. That seems to get lost in the conversation about refugees and internally displaced peoples.”

Nos tempos que vivemos e em que nos pedem para ficar em casa para conter um vírus, é bom recordar que noutras partes do mundo há quem seja obrigado a fugir das suas casas porque não é possível conter a violência e o ódio.

Such an eye opening read! I only wish there were more accounts from others as I read this so quickly
