44. Refugee to Refutees: Hussein Al-Baiaty

Hussein’s father once told him that, “Opportunities are like sand. If you’re not careful, you’ll lose some of it.” From fleeing Saddam Hussein’s regime and living in a tent at the Saudi Arabian borders to navigating life in America, his story will not just leave you speechless but will be a warm reminder of why, no matter what challenge you face, we should all be grateful every day. There is no “mission impossible”. Tune in now to Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.

Note of hot points:

Writing a book
Given tent at Saudi Arabian borders
Refugee camp became prison (many men were beat to death)
“It’s like being in prison for a crime you didn’t commit”
“Without hope, it’s just you and the desert”
Father painted like his life depended on it
Navigating American life - getting lost on the bus, learning English
People aren’t being welcome in America
