Yakub Ali was forced to work in the illegal economy, earning £50 per week or
less for 60 hours on a building site. Yakub fell from scaffolding and broke
his back. Charged £95,000 by the UK health service for the resulting
treatment he received, Yakub had to battle with health, housing and social
care providers to meet his basic human needs as a disabled person.
We Share the Same Sky weaves into a rich tableau, the story of Yakub with
those of two other asylum seekers, asking what control we have over our
lives in the crisis-ridden 21st century.
· Are we makers of our destinies or the tools of powerful
multinational corporations?
· Does the economic downturn herald a new period of struggle,
resistance and change?
· How can the UK Disabled Peoples movement, trade unionists and forces
for progressive change, work together to support and defend disabled
migrants?
