Do you know anyone who has ever been through a refugee experience? Do you think it could ever happen to you? How would you like you and your family to be treated if this happened?
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've read a books talking about people who experienced their hard life through a refugee experience. For example Asmeret Tesfazghi from Eritrea. In 2005, she won the Pride of Britain GMTV Carer of the Year Award. She got her award at a glamorous ceremony and dinner. She walked on a red carpet with traditional Eritrean dress and sat at a table with Victoria Beckham and Toney Blair. I don't think it will happen to me and my family. I won't like my family and me to be treated this way.
