A Refugee Lives to Survive
by Cynthia L. (Cindy) Cooper
“
A heartbreaking monologue on an African refugee about surviving on charity that forces us to think is that enough. How do we address injustice and systemic violence to improve the lives of the most unfortunate?
This should be included in any festival on refugees and undocumented immigrants.
