Download or read book Chashma e shireen written by Yourish singh and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2022-05-14 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chasma-E-Sheereen‟ means Glasses of dreams – the time till those glasses are there, life would feel wonderful but when they fall from our eyes or break, we see something that we were not familiar with – reality. We stayed away from this reality because the glasses protected us but when they are off our eyes, we face the bitter truth. But as time goes on and we learn to accept the realities of life, we can often observe the change in ourselves. In our life, we can change a lot of things just by working hard and doing our work; we could achieve a lot in life through that. Today, we design the lines on our palms. We plan, we work, we decide, and then we write our destiny ourselves. Our life threads are in the hand of the God, of whom we have started different religions and different castes – we all see him differently. God is energy, even his silhouette is a mystery, and for us to see him, would be impossible. To understand him, we have to understand ourselves – the reason why we are here, what are we doing, who are we, and what we will be? If we keep up the never-ending determination and strong willpower and believe in ourselves – only then we could understand or see that energy living among us or above us.

Download or read book Letters from Inside a U S Detention Center written by Jane Juffer and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-04-19 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After fleeing homophobia and threats to her life in her native El Salvador, ‘Carla’ was detained for two years inside the Buffalo Federal Detention Center. Her letters provide a powerful and unique account of a queer woman’s experience inside America’s asylum system. Letters from Inside a U.S. Detention Center reconstructs Carla’s story from the correspondence between Carla and Jane Juffer, a professor at Cornell University, and from excerpts from the legal decisions made while she was being held in immigration detention. Contextualised with explanation and analysis of detention in the United States, the book examines how detention exacerbates the trauma many migrants experience and becomes another site of fear, intimidation, and uncertainty. Carla’s narrative is a powerful story, and one that illustrates grievous injustices in the U.S. immigration and asylum system. The book will be of immense value to immigration activists and scholars alike, especially in feminist studies, queer studies, and those studying the intersections of prisons and detention centres.
