#dealwithme: Seeking acceptance - Ali, Germany
November 15, 2014Advertisement
19-year-old Ali has been a refugee almost all his life. He’s currently living in a shelter on the outskirts of Berlin far away from his family. When he was a baby, his parents were forced to leave Afghanistan for Iran. But life there wasn’t any better; the family faced discrimination, threats and imprisonment on a regular basis. Hoping for a brighter future, Ali left Iran and fled to Germany two years ago. But even there, surrounded by a wealthy and healthy society, he’s struggling for acceptance.
