I want to be free to live my life

"True Talk" puts people in front of the camera who are fighting prejudice or discrimination. They answer questions that nobody would normally dare to ask directly. 

This week, we talk to Eritrean refugee, Miki, who believes his people get a bad press in Switzerland. He says, “If 50 out of 10,000 Eritreans living here do bad things, then the media will report on that, even if the other 9,950 are good.” He says there is a world of difference between Eritrean asylum seekers and Eritreans who are born here, with the latter enjoying much more freedom.
