Imagine being born into a world where everything about you the shape of your nose, the look of your hair, the place of your birth designates you as an undesirable, an inferior, a menace, no better than a cockroach, something to be driven away and ultimately exterminated.
Imagine being thousands of miles away while your family and friends are brutally and methodically slaughtered.
Imagine being entrusted by your parents with the mission of leaving everything you know and finding some way to survi.
