  • Bravo Angelina! ...

    Bravo Angelina! You're a brave lady. My heart goes out to all the Afghans who had to leave their homes & their land in this "Foreign-Sponsored Human Rights Disaster Ignored by the World" [1] and bravo to the people of Pakistan for hosting the largest ever influx of refugees in the world, for over 30 years now. 5 Million people owe their lives to your open-heartedness! May God bless you & give you more compassion.

  • hey, that's really ...

    hey, that's really cool that you want to do something, there are lots of things you can do to be actively involved even if you can't go directly to these countries. Firstly, join amnesty, if you are in a local group you can get directly involved in campaigning for people's human rights worldwide including people who are seeking asylum. You can also go & volunteer at your local red cross, or any other local charities working directly with asylum seekers in your country, hope this is helpful!
