Students in Skateistan’s “Back to School” class in northern Afghanistan had never had any kind of ID card before. They are from a nomadic ethnic group that struggles to get official citizenship in the country. As you can see, they were very proud of their new Skateistan ID cards. If I were a magician of the heart, like my friend Bila, my first trick would be to grant - for starters, as Id still be a rookie - all Rohingya, Romani, Kurdish, Uyghur and other stateless children around the world such a validation of their place, a sense of belonging, in the world. skateistan.org
