Legally Homeless was created to shine a light on the 9.2 million refugees, and the 25 million internally displaced persons that live throughout fifty two countries in the world today. Through humor, Mohammed Amer can find a common bond to raise awareness to these issues. This is not a racial or religious problem, but a worldwide concern that affects people of every color and religion. Refugees are forced to flee their country due to fear of danger or persecution, while internally displaced persons are relocated within their countries borders for the same reason. This leaves almost 35 million people across the globe displaced from their homes due to tyrannical oppression, and fear. When this oppression and fear happens in a country, the United Nations steps in to help that country protect its citizens. We can be the voice that lifts up nations to help those small groups within a country that have been conveniently forgotten in the pages of history.

Legally Homeless brings attention to the current barriers that must be overcome by stateless refugees in the world. Attention to things as seemingly simple as traveling the world, to those more difficult such as regaining citizenship. Being a citizen of any country is something most of the world takes for granted. When you have to answer for your actions at the time of judgment, I doubt there will be a second line for people without a passport.

The mental revolution is here and can no longer be ignored or denied. Legally Homeless was started to shine a light on the trials and tribulations that stateless refugees must deal with on a daily basis. The hoops that they must jump through to live their lives in the same fashion as a normal citizen are exhaustive and demoralizing. By raising awareness through a message of laughter and understanding, maybe we can begin shaping a change for our world that will improve the lives of generations to come.
