Errol Langton and his Afrikaner family left South Africa in 2024 after a U.S. order allowed white South Africans facing discrimination to seek refuge. They settled in Birmingham, Alabama, where family support and government help like healthcare made the hard journey easier. Though facing doubts about their refugee status, the Langtons worked to build a new life, learning local customs and finding kindness in their new community. Their story shows how migration is both a personal challenge and a search for safety and belonging.
