Nyadol Nyuon's family is from South Sudan, but she was born in a refugee camp.
Every night she prayed that her family could move to Australia. And, when she was 18, her prayers were answered.
In Australia, Nyadol wanted to be a lawyer, but her teachers didn't think she had the ability. Nyadol had some surprises in store for those doubters.
She did become a lawyer and, when the media unfairly targeted African youths in their reports, she found her voice and fought to give refugees a voice too.
Narrated by comedian, Natalie Tran.
