BetterWorld Heroes Who Were Refugees

We believe that human rights transcend boundaries and must prevail over state sovereignty.
-- José Ramos-Horta

Look at situations as contingent, not as inevitable, look at them as the result of a series of historical choices made by men and women, as facts of society made by human beings, and not as natural or god-given, therefore unchangeable, permanent, irreversible.  
--Edward Said

"I've always been in danger, but I don't mind."
-- Sima Samar

When I arrived in America, though I had left the war physically far behind, in my mind, the soldiers were still chasing to kill me, my stomach was always hungry, and my fear and distrust kept me from opening up to new friendships. I thought the war was over when I left Cambodia, but I realize now that for survivors and all those involved, the war is never over just because the guns have fallen silent.
- Loung Ung
