I did it, Mom. I graduated with a Juris Doctor and a Bachelor's in International Relations, becoming a proud Australian lawyer.

From a refugee child to this moment, my mom's hope guided me. I achieved this & brought my mom to safety in Australia to witness my graduation❤️

Reports from El Fasher in Sudan are terrible: deadly attacks on civilians, horrifying accounts of ethnic targeting, people too fearful of checkpoints to even flee!

Deliberate violence on civilians must stop. Their right to seek safety must be respected. Ceasefire is needed now!
