Summary:
Malala Yousafzai introduces some of the people behind the statistics and news
stories
we read or hear every day about the millions of people displaced worldwide. Malala's experiences visiting
refugee
camps caused her to reconsider her own displacement-- first as an Internally Displaced Person when she was a young child in Pakistan, and then as an international activist who could travel anywhere in the
world
except to the home she loved. In We Are Displaced, which is part memoir, part communal storytelling, Malala not only explores her own story, but she also shares the personal
stories
of some of the incredible
girls
she has met on her journeys
girls
who have lost their community, relatives, and often the only
world
they've ever known. In a time of immigration crises, war, and border conflicts, We Are Displaced is an important reminder from one of the
world
's most prominent young activists that every single one of the 68.5 million currently displaced is a person-- often a young person with hopes and dreams.
