Can someone describe "Taken from my country" 
Grok says...
Ilhan Omar arrived in the United States in 1995 as a refugee from Somalia. Born in Mogadishu on October 4, 1982, she fled the Somali Civil War with her family at age eight, spending four years in the Dadaab refugee camp in Kenya. Her family was granted asylum in the U.S. through the immigration process, initially arriving in New York in March 1995. They briefly lived in Arlington, Virginia, before settling in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in 1997, where they joined the large Somali community in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood. Her grandfather’s desire to live in a “true democracy” influenced their choice to resettle in the U.S. over other options like Norway or Canada.
