I wanted to write my parts in this book because I want to shed light on my father’s story through a child’s perspective; through my eyes. There’s something real about how children experience confusion and fear. Revisiting those childhood thoughts helped me understand just how much fear had been planted in our hearts, and how deeply the injustice my dad faced impacted our entire family. Yet, even in that darkness, I always looked at my dad with awe. Despite everything he went through, he remained a good person. I used to think to myself that one day, he will tell this story, shedding light on what had been hidden, and speak his truth with his head held high, while having no shame about where he you came from. I wanted to be part of this book to bring out the emotional reality that often gets overlooked. Injustice doesn’t just affect one person, it affects whole families, whole generations. There’s never just one side to a story, and I wrote my side to show the world how many hearts can be wounded by a single wrong, and how much strength it takes to keep going in spite of everything.
