If there’s one sport that can really make a difference in the fight against all sorts of discrimination, it is surfing. “Samira Surfs” is an illustrated novel in verse inspired by a true story that illuminates the plight of Muslim Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh through a young girl’s journey as she finds peace and empowerment in a Cox’s Bazar surf club. Samira’s character takes inspiration from the true story of a group of Bangladeshi surfer girls who have defied the traditional expectations for women in their culture to take on the sport.
