I grew up in the village of Dissa in the Darfur region of western Sudan. While growing up, I didnt know what racism was and didnt differentiate between people based on their color or religion. I had no access to television or electricity, had never tasted chocolate, and my family put our money in a hole instead of keeping it in a bank. In 2003, I was forced to leave my country with other Darfuris to escape persecution. While in Egypt in 2005, I read the word "refugee" in a book and realized that was me. I have experienced hate and racism because I am a refugee and foreign. I have been called "ponga ponga," "chocolate," "ashikabla," and "koshi." All these terms were meant to humiliate me either for my status as a refugee or for the color of my skin. I have been put in prison for being a refugee. On December 31, 2005, in Egypt, twenty-seven people were killed in front of my eyes simply because they were refugees. This book tells my story, both the happy parts as a child and the challenging parts as a refugee. I want the world to see all of me, not just my skin or my legal status. Because Darfuri refugees arent just a nameless mass of people. We have families, stories, lives, just like you.</p>...1385660The Nightmare of the Exile8080https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-nightmare-of-the-exile-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1097166/bdd7ed6e-c1af-455c-83c4-cd0cde185240.jpg?v=638337368368170000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20159781503587472_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_<p>I am a simple person from a simple family who was part of a simple community.
