"Home" by Warsan Shire
"Home" by Warsan Shire is your must read of the day. It offers a powerful message in the wake of the widely-publicized photo of 3-year old Aylan Kurdi's body, washed upon the shores of Turkey.
Shire writes:
you have to understand,
that no one puts their children in a boat
unless the water is safer than the land
This may become required reading for my asylum classes.
