Save the bantu community in Somalia

Somalilandsun: Have you ever been told that you don’t belong? Have you ever had the experience of being told that people like you aren’t welcome here? I know what that feels like. I am a member of the Somali Bantu community and a refugee here in Springfield. Now, let me tell you how I ended up here

At one time, my parents had a peaceful life in Somalia. It was 1991 when my parent’s whole life turned upside down. The civil war broke out in Somalia and the minority Somali Bantu became a target. Everything was taken away from my parents.  Narrates Rumbila Abdullahi, member of the Somali Bantu community and a refugee living in Springfield
