How One Young Man Escaped Genocide

By Anais Rivera | Development & Communications Manager

Since 2017 over a million Rohingya, a Muslim ethnic minority, have been displaced from their homes in Myanmar because of extreme violence and persecution. There are more than 750,000 Rohingya living in refugee camps in Bangladesh. They have had a long history of discrimination, persecution, brutality and denial of citizenship at the hands of the Myanmar government. 

A recent United Nations report states that the Rohingya still living in Myanmar face ongoing systematic persecution and a greater threat of genocide than ever. Myanmar has done nothing to dismantle the system of persecution and violence against them and the Rohingya continue to live in the same deplorable conditions that they lived in prior to 2017. There is a lack of accountability for the perpetrators of these crimes and a failure by the government to enact effective legislation to criminalize and punish genocide. 

We have just completed a video telling the story of Imran, one young victim of this genocide. He escaped from Rakhine, Myanmar and was forced to stay in multiple detention camps in Asia before finally being granted asylum in the United States. 

Your continued support allows us to tell his story and the stories of other survivors of genocide. We invite you to watch his story and visit our website www.3generations.org for more updates on this and all of our current projects.
