Promised Land
by Peter Griffith
 
Ravi has crossed the world to find a new home, away from
the horror and bloodshed of war-torn Sri Lanka. Acquiring
asylum in Great Britain is difficult enough.
But when Ravi is finally accepted as a refugee, his problems
really start. He and his mother are accomodated on a run-

an estate dominated by a racist gang…
 
The accompanying Teachers' Pack contains information
about racism, including material from the Refugee Council,
an organisation which helps immigrants and refugees in
Great Britain.
