We are not illegal immigrants. We are political refugees who fled persecution to save our lives and sought protection under international law. Today, many Ethiopians refugees in South Africa are living in fear because of xenophobic violence. We call on the international community
International law guarantees protection for those fleeing persecution. Yet refugees in South Africa continue to face fear and prejudice daily. We urge global leaders & @UN Human Rights to work with South African authorities to safeguard basic refugee rights. @AfricanUnion
