Refugees In 'Inside Out And Back Again'

All refugees share similar experiences when adjusting to their new way of life. A refugee is a person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster. When they have to move to a new country, they may not know the language. So that is an obstacle for them, learning the new language is very difficult. They also have to cope with the things they no longer have and the different culture. They have to get used to this new place and find their own new normal. In the book Inside Out and Back Again Ha and her family have to deal with all the obstacles that come with becoming a refugee.

Ha’s story is like the refugees in the Til Gurung Speech because those refugees also had hardships that they had to deal with too. “But here in the U.S, my community continues to struggle’, (Til Gurung Speech). Ha’s story is similar to other refugees because the refugees in other stories may also get bullied because they are different.

If Ahn had not left this oppressive environment, he would have grown up in extreme poverty and would be a very different person due to the trauma that

Have you ever meet a refuge or know someone who escaped their country because of war?

But even if they have different reasons of fleeing, they usually go through the same thing. Misfortunes, hardships and sacrifices are some of the things refugees around the world have to go through. Ha, the main character from the book Inside Out, shows some of those. But Ha also shows how those hardships change her throughout the book. She didn’t get along with her brothers before they had to leave Vietnam. She always wanted to find ways to get at her brothers and try to anger them. She also used to get angry right away, just like when she didn’t get what she wanted, she started to get angry and get what it was or do what it was that she wanted.

Ha and other refugees have all faced challenges by deciding to leave their homes and flee to another country. But most of them would prefer to have stayed, while the war took place, instead of fleeing, and being safe in a new country. I know this because of evidence from the text that is given, “No one would believe me but at times I would choose wartime in Saigon over peacetime in Alabama.” (Lai 195). She wants to go back to Saigon, and the wartime, rather than be in Alabama, where there is peace time, and she was glad that they were able to stay a little bit longer, because she says, “I’m glad we’ve become poor, so we can stay” (Lai 11).
