Produktbeschreibung

Cultural differences are important in our world, can improve knowledge, and build bridges between ignorance and understanding. This book contains seven short stories that describe Darfuri village life and presents a people before conflict. It is a testimony of traditions and customs that disappeared because of war. The author believes that writing these stories helps keep traditions alive and preserve a way of life stolen by the ongoing conflict that started in 2003. Understanding peoples cultural backgrounds is especially important now after the recent wave of immigration and the growing population of refugees around the world. This book aims to present those different backgrounds as cultural wealth and help people avoid conflict through understanding and human connection.

Autorenporträt

Adam Ahmed, or Adam Darfur as some friends call him, was born in the village of Dissa in North Darfur. Like many Darfuris, he does not know exactly when he was born. He, like many of his countrymen, was forced to leave his home in 2004 when the Janjweed killed more than five hundred thousand people and forced more than two and a half million to live in internally displaced person (IDP) camps and refugees outside their home country. Adam wrote his first book, "The Nightmare of the Exile," to tell the world about what happened in Darfur and the continuing crisis there. This is Adam's second book, a collection of short stories about Darfuri life before the conflict. He is currently studying to be a social worker at Walden University and plans to work with displaced refugee women and children once he receives his degree.
