OverviewNowhere to Be Home is an eye-opening collection of oral histories exposing the realities of life under military rule. In their own words, men and women from Burma describe how their lives have been deeply altered by the country's current regime: refugees who have fled ethnic and religious persecution at the hands of the military, political dissidents jailed and tortured, and youth and community leaders working for solutions at great personal risk. Woven together, these experiences are a testament to the complexity and magnitude of the human rights crisis in Burma, as well as to the resilience of its people.
