Out of Exile: The Abducted and Displaced People of Sudan

Collects firsthand accounts by refugees who are establishing new lives in the United States or attempting to rebuild their homes in south Sudan, in a collection of narratives that offers insight into their decisions to leave their homes, their dramatic escapes, and the realities of refugee camp life.

Decades of conflicts and persecution have driven millions from their homes in all parts of the northeast African country of Sudan. Many thousands more have been enslaved as human spoils of war. In their own words, the narrators of Out of Exile recount their lives before their displacement, the reasons for their flight, and their hopes of someday returning home.
