| 0:12.7 | You tell the story of a single woman. |
| 0:15.3 | And, subhanna-law, just as an exercise, if I was to start here and to quote statistics about what's happening |
| 0:21.8 | to our brothers and sisters in Sudan, you'd likely forget it by Asr. |
| 0:27.2 | But I tell you one story of a sister named Rauda, who was 40 years old, nine months pregnant, |
| 0:36.7 | and displaced, and every single member of her family was killed and because of the |
