DO THEY HEAR YOU WHEN YOU CRY?(ISBN=9780385319942) 英文原版 rb mobi 在线 下载 lit txt 网盘 pdf

　　For Fauziya Kassindja, an idyllic childhood in Togo, West

Africa, sheltered from the tribal practices of polygamy and genital

mutilation, ended with her beloved father's sudden death. Forced

into an arranged marriage at age seventeen, Fauziya was told to

prepare for kakia, the ritual also known as female genital

mutilation. It is a ritual no woman can refuse. But Fauziya dared

to try.

This is her story--told in her own words--of fleeing Africa just

hours before the ritual kakia was to take place, of seeking asylum

in America only to be locked up in U.S. prisons, and of meeting

Layli Miller Bashir, a law student who became Fauziya's friend and

advocate during her horrifying sixteen months behind bars. Layli

enlisted help from Karen Musalo, an expert in refugee law and

acting director of the American University International Human

Rights Clinic. In addition to devoting her own considerable efforts

to the case, Musalo assembled a team to fight with her on Fauziya's

behalf. Ultimately, in a landmark decision in immigration history,

Fauziya Kassindja was granted asylum on June 13, 1996. Do They Hear

You When You Cry is her unforgettable chronicle of triumph.
