In Contempt of Fate
THIS IS BEATRICE FERNANDO’S STORY. FOLLOW HER JOURNEY FROM SRI LANKA TO LEBANON, AND FINALLY TO THE STATES
EXCERPT:
I was finally ready. This was my last attempt at escape from my brutal employer in Lebanon. Four floors down, off the balcony lay my freedom. I could hardly see the ground since it was still dark. Holding on to the cold railing I wondered: Could this be my last moment in this world? I was not being suicidal, but it was my only chance to escape death and live to see my son again

I just wanted to thank you for coming to speak last Monday at Harvard for the Harvard Program for International Education. We were all very inspired by your speech, and all of the students and teachers we spoke with agreed it was by far one of the most powerful talks they had heard. We really appreciate that you were able to take the time to come and speak for us.
