Reviews

""Michelson’s book poignantly explores the horrific lives of refugees and immigrants mangled and exploited by barbaric cruelty at every turn. And still, they hope, they continue, they endure. They send a message of redemption to all of us to act, to serve, to be accountable, compassionate. This book will touch the very core of your heart and awaken it to the injustice perpetrated on the most helpless and innocent, and in that awakening is a call for us to get involved to stop, in any way we can, what is happening all around us daily. What little humanity we cherish is lost if we ignore our responsibility. Unlike anything I have read, the beauty of this book is Michelson’s depictions of the individuals who, in every account, reach out to us for mercy and understanding."" * Jimmy Baca, founder of Cedar Tree, Inc and author of A Place to Stand *
