Little Amal, a puppet inspired by a displaced 10-year-old Syrian refugee, was created to be a symbol of hope for children separated from their families.
She’s a 12-foot puppet representing a 10-year-old Syrian refugee who was displaced. San Diego County residents who came to San Ysidro Saturday are calling her a symbol of compassion and human rights. She’s carrying a message of hope for displaced people everywhere, especially children who have been separated from their families.
Saturday, she walked through a San Ysidro neighborhood collecting letters that will go to migrant families living across the border in Tijuana."We are sending post cards of love empathy, hope and perseverance and we will send those words to a migrant shelter where 1,500 migrants are waiting for Amal," said Teddy Cruz, Co-Director of Global Justice at UCSD.
