Simon shares his harrowing childhood experiences—growing up in a war-torn village, witnessing violence, and ultimately being kidnapped and forced into slavery at the age of nine. He recounts the trauma of being separated from his family, the brutal realities of life as a child slave, and the resilience that helped him survive. Simon also reflects on his journey to freedom and his mission to be a voice for the voiceless, using his story to advocate for human rights and justice. This deeply moving conversation sheds light on the ongoing struggles faced by many and the enduring power of hope and activism. 🔔 Subscribe now and never miss an episode 📢 Follow us on social media: Instagram: hereiamwithshaidavidai https://www.instagram.com/hereiamwithshaidavidai?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== Tik Tok: hereiamwithshaidavidai https://www.tiktok.com/@hereiamwithshaidavidai 🎧 Listen to the full episode on your favorite podcast platform: RSS: https://rss.com/podcasts/hereiamwithshaidavidai Apple Podcasts: https://rss.com/podcasts/hereiamwithshaidavidai/ Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/shai-davidai #HereIAm #ShaiDavidai #SimonDeng #HumanRights #SouthSudan #Survivor #Slavery #ChildhoodStories #Inspiration #Freedom #Activism #HumanRightsActivist #SurvivorStory #AfricanHistory #Sudan #Resilience #Hope #Justice #Awareness #Podcast #Interview #TrueStory #Motivation #OvercomingAdversity #VoiceForTheVoiceless #RealLifeStories #modernslavery #slavery Credits: Producers: Shai Davidai, Abbie Sophia, Adamit Productions Filmed @ The CAVE Soundstage in Hackensack and edited by Adamit Productions Graphic by Shira Auman For sponsorship opportunities, please email [email protected]
