From Chicago to Syria: You are not Alone!


Many Syrians all over the world have had a really hard time going about their daily lives regularly. Many have quit everything to go back to Syria, while others were unable to for one reason or another. However, each and every Syrian abroad has gone to bed crying and feeling hopeless at least once. These feelings are not often discussed, because this pain is nothing compared to the pain being felt by friends and families going about their lives in Syria filled with hope. To these people, and to all the brave Syrians fighting for freedom, a group of Syrians and residents of the Chicago area put together this short video in a show of solidarity and love. They expressed themselves by writing messages on their hands, sending support to fighters on the front lines in Syria.

The video was made to show support for Syrians on ground, but also to ask the world to “SAVE SYRIA,” as the description of the video says.
