Not white enough for the British, not black enough for Mugabe


Nonviolence for a change, training 2009

Nellile de jonhg tells her very personal story of persecution for being a mixed-race person in Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, and the ensuing battle to exercise for her right to claim asylum. In this article she links her struggle to campaigning for the rights of detained children of asylum seekers. The aim of her article, in her own words is 'if anything I hope to encourage other people and hopefully they can say if Nelle can stand up to this oppressive and racist system, so can I.'
