- It started in 2013, when rebel forces attempted to overthrow the president. Two years later, the rebels were still clashing with government troops.
- One afternoon, as her mom dug in the dusty soil and Grace watched her sister nearby, a man approached.
- He asked for water and work. Neither request was unusual. Millions of South Sudanese had been left poor, hungry, and homeless because of the conflict.
- After handing the man water to drink and a shovel to dig
- Five uniformed men appeared, waving guns and yelling wildly. They surrounded Grace, her mom, and her sister, ordering them to sit on the ground.
- My mom turned back to her work. But just as she looked away, the man signaled to people hiding nearby.
- As the family sat trembling, one of the men spoke. “We are going to train you,” he said, “to become soldiers.”
- As the family sat trembling, one of the men spoke. “We are going to train you,” he said, “to become soldiers.”
