When Stars Are Scattered | Victoria Jamieson, Omar Mohamed
post image
Pickpick

Omar and Hassan fled Somalia as very young boys. Separated from their mother, and knowing their father was dead, the boys arrived barely alive to the refugee camp Dadaab in Kenya.

Together Jamieson and Mohamed paint a picture of what life was like growing up in community, but without parents. Constantly in a space of waiting, but not giving up hope.

There are 71 million displaced people, and this is a story we need.
