Lena Headey Instagram – My friends @chooselove sent this to me, everyone needs to read this article.
@Zarlasht_ halaimzai was only 11 years old when she fled Kabul in Afghanistan with her family.
“To survive, we needed not only to speak a different language, but to learn new gestures, new stories and, most important, understand the currency that gave you access to society. In a country where your social capital is bound up in class and race, learning the social codes could determine the trajectory of your life “
Almost three decades after fleeing Afghanistan, Zarlasht now runs an incredible organisation in Greece working to help refugees deal with trauma and support them to build their futures.
