A l’âge de 30 ans, Samar est, à présent, la première tunisienne à décrocher un doctorat de la fameuse université de Cambridge depuis sa création en 1209.

Un parcours de cinq ans qui s’est avéré dur mais riche en espoir, a été couronné par un doctorat certifié par cette prestigieuse université britannique avec une thèse intitulée  » la représentation médiatique des musulmans au Royaume Uni « .

Cette jeune tuniso-irakienne n’a réalisé cette victoire que grâce à son entourage familial qui a toujours été à ses cotés pour l’encourager, mais surtout, grâce à sa détermination et son travail acharné.

Néanmoins, ce-ci n’est pas le premier exploit réalisé par Samar qui a réussit à obtenir un magistère en communication, culture et discours critique de l’université de Birmingham dans le cadre d’une bourse  » Chevening  » et qui a été choisie parmi les 17 jeunes leaders pour les objectifs du développement durable des Nations Unies.

Il convient aussi de rappeler qu’elle avait intégré le Guinness book des records à 2 reprises. D’abord, en l’an 2000 (à l’âgé de 12 ans) comme étant la plus jeune écrivaine au monde et ensuite en 2002 pour être l’écrivaine la plus prolifique du monde.

“ Nous aussi, on peut ! ” : l’expression de  Samar ce mardi 18 décembre 2018 sur sa page Facebook; un slogan dont tout jeune tunisien doit s’inspirer !

The Syria-Turkey Earthquake

How heartwrecking it is to wish for a bit of calm, just few seconds of composure, few glimpses of rest. The ground always threatened to open and swallow them, but they loved it. The earth they were walking on was a glass that was about to shatter, but they adored it. For little kids, it didn’t matter if the whole world was collapsing outside. They had a house and their family was around. But even that was lost.

On the 6th of February 2023, Syria and Turkey lived through the horrors of an earthquake that tore down families and took so many precious lives. Even to think about that is heart-aching. When you hear about an earthquake, you can’t really get calm thoughts and your heart races. You keep wondering about those who made it out of the ruins and those who didn’t. Those whose hands were shaking, but didn’t get to the other side. Those whose hearts were trembling, but the roofs that once protected them weighed too heavily on their shoulders and they were chained. Your lungs won’t find air to breathe and you’ll swallow your heart. You’ll grieve the people who lost everything in a game they didn’t even play.

In the midst of the chaos, a seven year old from Damascus spent seventeen hours under a rubble and placed her hands over her brother’s head, protecting him. She loves him more than anything. Although the roof over their heads fell to their little shoulders, she used it to hold her most precious belongings, her brother.

Once you see that, it never leaves your head. It’s murderous, but beautiful. It’s agonizing, but inspiring. She wrapped him around her like like two branches of a sturdy oak tree, surviving the storm that had ravaged their home. She held tight onto him for he was the cornerstone of her family, the words carved on her heart, and half her soul. The walls of her home may have crumbled, but her love for it remained unshaken. As long as she was next to him, she’ll still have a home.

A soundless scream echoes in the stillness of the night. A call to arms, a cry for help in the face of fright. When your whole world collpases, the loss of everything you’ve ever loved and everything you’ve ever known leaves a wound that even a lifetime cannot stitch. If what they say about hope being synonymous with life, I wish Turks and Syrians never lose it, not to die twice.
