We Are All Refugees is a song I wrote about a child refugee. Whilst it is not precisely my story, it is nevertheless based on my own experiences as a former child refugee, drawing on the themes of loss and separation amongst others.
The video portrays famous refugees who most people may not know are refugees. Most people think of refugees as outsiders, whereas the reality is that there are many already living and contributing to the societies that they have fled to.
I talk about the song and video in this interview on BBC Radio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F32C0norrGE
And the story of how me and my family fled Iran is here:
