49. Gratitude in Low Voices by Dawit Gebremichael Habte
Dawit fled his homeland of Eritrea as a teenager. Without their parents or documents to help their passage, they experienced the abuse and neglect known by so many refugees around the world. But Dawit refused to give up. Journeying to the United States under asylum, Dawit studied hard and was accepted to Johns Hopkins University, eventually landing a job as a software engineer at Bloomberg. After a few years, Dawit returned to his homeland to offer business opportunities for other Eritreans. Gratitude in Low Voices is about how one man was marginalized but how compassion and love never abandoned him. It’s about learning how to honor those who help the helpless.
