Just 15 years old and so much to share, as Africans we can either relate to her story or know someone in our circles who can relate to the troubles this young girl and her family shared...

Her father was an oponent of the political regime and had to flee with his family to France. There with 3 kids and a wife started the life of "sans papiers"

Loriane was 6 years old when she arrived to France and as kids do she adapted quickly to her new life speaking French but understanding quickly that she couldn't live as freely as the other kids....

It's no secret that France's immigration policies are very hard on immigrants, there our brothers and sisters can't freely go on the streets without proof of residency, they are asked on the regular by the police to show their "paps"

Loriane shares her frustration, how she felt during those years, the povery she lived it ect...

Today her family and her have the permit to stay in France for a year, hoping that with this courageous book they are given the right to permanently stay in France..

but I'm left with couple questions: How did she get the deal? did she come up on her own with the idea of getting published? bref I would like to know more about Loriane

If anyone knows please share.....

Djaa our little sisters from Angola are doin their thang)

Eyeee Wayee:)
