Thank you to everyone who participated in the #AlightwithHope campaign — every message ensures that all of us can continue to feel seen, supported, and not alone. 🤝💬

With my Sanctuary Runners friends in Athlone for our #WorldRefugeeWeek celebration. We learnt some Dabke steps from Palestine and shared food and chats and even played some basketball after the run.
An excerpt of “Our Blood Spans Continents” from my 2018 poetry pamphlet, BLACKBIRDS.
I am the son of Spanish and Portuguese immigrants.
I am a Canadian adoptee of Cambodian refugee ancestry.

Hope often shows up in the quietest moments and the smallest hearts. 💛✨
Even when everything feels lost, love can remind us to believe again.

'What does it mean to become a refugee before you've even had the chance to grow up?
Children around the world are being displaced at unprecedented levels. Some are too young to understand why they're running; others carry memories no child should ever endure.'
