A tragic encounter. A devastating loss. The heartbreaking journey of Sunayana Dumala, a woman whose life was forever changed one fateful February night, when her husband was killed in a brutal hate crime. “Get out of my country!” were the last words he heard—a sentence filled with venom and ignorance, followed by violence that shattered many lives.
In this poignant video, Sunayana talks with Central Florida Pledge chairman, Dr. Joel C. Hunter, about her path from unimaginable grief to powerful advocacy. She’s transformed her pain into a mission, founding an organization called Forever Welcome (foreverwelcome.org), aiming to create a world where no one feels unsafe.
