Solito, Solita - (Voice of Witness) by Steven Mayers & Jonathan Freedman (Paperback)

The Solito, Solita collection of oral histories is a powerful and moving account of young refugees fleeing Central America and their perilous journeys to seek safety in the United States.

Through the eyes of 15 narrators, we witness abuse, abandonment, bravery, resilience, hypocrisy, and hope as they share their stories of survival against all odds.

From fending off kidnappers with knives to being locked in freezing holding cells, these narratives bring us into the hearts of young people fighting for a better life across the border.

The Solito, Solita collection is an urgent and necessary read for anyone seeking to understand the experiences of migrant youth and the ongoing struggles they face.

It is a testament to their strength, courage, and resilience in the face of unimaginable hardship.
