Contents Summary
Sadikh Niass of RADDHO continues his visits to various refugee sites around Senegal and interviews teachers of refugees and the refugees themselves. The second part of the tape focuses on a group of Liberian refugees amidst a hunger strike, protesting the poor and unstable conditions in which they are forced to live. They voice their complaints against the UNHCR and describe how they have been treated like barbarians and bandits, since their arrival in Senegal five to ten years ago. In the first section of the video, there are shots in and around a school-in the yard and inside the classroom. The teacher in this school is interviewed (who has 61 students), and he speaks of a young Rwandan refugee student who was quite brilliant. The second part of the tape focuses on the Liberian refugees who are in the middle of a hunger strike, protesting the conditions in which they have been forced to live, in Dakar. Various men are interviewed and articulately and vehemently state their grievances.
