What you do not know about Europe
Ssuuna Golooba, a former freelance photojournalist in Uganda, presents the raw reality of leaving his homeland. This young and ambitious traveller, like Puss in Boots, went in search of a Europe paved with gold but discovered instead poverty, discrimination and ever-increasing red tape.
For more than seven years, Ssuuna lived in the Netherlands and Germany in the anonymity of an illegal migrant. He survived on the meagre income he generated by doing irregular cleaning jobs.
In 2005, Ssuuna Golooba was in the Netherlands when a fire broke out at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, in which eleven illegal migrants died. Many more were injured. This tragic event was a turning point in Ssuuna’s perception of Europe.
These are raw impressions of what you would rather not know about Europe.
