Podcast 2024Ally PorteeA native of Ghana, she details her escape from domestic worker abuse Sherrynorth is known as Misi Resilience by those who know her best, was like many women on the African continent, who leave home to work as domestic workers because they need to make more money to provide for their families in their countries. Originally from Ghana, she was conned by a fellow Ghanaian that she trusted, who acted like an agency and arranged her travel to Kurdistan to work for a family, but everything went extremely south after that. Sherrynorth was later trafficked to Iraq working for a former government minister, and underwent the worst horrors of what domestic workers fear: rape, beatings, human degradation, mental attacks that she trusted no one. Her story could be a movie. It was her faith in God and the will to fight that got her through. Now back in Ghana, Sherrynorth helps other domestic workers, and provides them with the resources they need if they have negative experiences like hers.
