Member writes first-person piece for Huffington Post
On 11 June, Huffington Post published a first-person piece by MV member Areej Osman, about her time in detention and in lockdown, and how meditation helped her survive both.
"My time in detention was, of course, much worse than this lockdown," she writes, "but in both situations, losing my freedom and the physical support of friends left me with the same sense of powerlessness. And it’s the same thing that has helped me survive both experiences."
This piece was pitched and published as part of the Meet a Migrant project.
