During our venture throughout Unit 2 ("Urban Sprawl, Urban Decay") we dealt with different issues such as life in the cities, gentrification, urban art, community activism and volunteering. The topic of Refugees was also somehow addressed and that was when one of your classmates sent me this gorgeous poem about that very topic by Kenian-born, Somali-raised, London-based Warsan Shire. Her words on what moves refugees to flee their beloved country should be heard and seen by everyone.
