Despite being just brief glimpses into the experiences of these girls, there are more gruesome stories in this book than I ever hope to experience. The resilience and strength of these women, fleeing their homes and building a new life elsewhere is remarkable. It is often overlooked that the people who flee whatever situation are not just looking for 'luck' elsewhere, but also leave a lot behind. Not just their belonings, family and friends, but also a little bit of themselves.
Recommended to all, and despite the experiences being very different to mine, it felt very relatable to someone growing up with mixed heritage.

Championing how girls education can mean the difference between agency and being trapped.
What forces families to flee, to brave the danger of insecurity, poverty and a place unlike home. How they have the strength to keep going and go on to 8nspire more people. The balance between relief and gratitude to be safe from violence, mixed with the loss of being Uprooted from your community and life as you knew it. To feel out of place. To be Displaced.
