"When They Call You a Terrorist"

"When They Call You a Terrorist" is a memoir by Dr. Aicha Elbasri that recounts her experiences as a Sudanese humanitarian worker falsely labeled a terrorist by the Sudanese government. The book highlights how governments and societies sometimes criminalize and stigmatize individuals who oppose injustice or advocate for human rights, often using the label "terrorist" to silence dissent and justify persecution. It sheds light on the broader issues of political repression, the misuse of power, and the importance of standing up against unjust accusations that threaten personal safety and freedom.
