Rohingya poet and genocide survivor, Mayyu Ali, recites a poem from "Exodus" and talks about his new biography published in French called "The Erasure."

BURNING ALIVE
By Mayyu Ali

The sky is silent
The earth is silent
The blade on the skin of my throat
I scream out and it echoes from hill to hill

Some say, victims can lie
See the wounds and scars on our bodies
Parents keep yet clothes of killed sons
Orphans keep the skulls of their parents
I watched the blood streaming down
Where my husband and son were consumed

Next, I watched
My baby was thrown into the bonfire
Burnt to fuel
Burnt to ashes
Disappeared in the thin air.
