My name is Amina, a 32-year-old woman living in East London with my husband and two children. Originally from Pakistan, our family emigrated to Great Britain in search of better opportunities and a safe environment. I pursued education in social work, driven by a desire to uplift my community. The warmth of laughter with my loved ones brings me joy, while the struggles of cultural identity often make me sad. I fear losing my heritage, and what matters most to me is ensuring my children embrace both cultures. This autobiography captures my experiences, dreams, and the strength I carry within the black veil.
