I think it is sometimes hard to understand how certain individuals do not have educational background in western countries. I believe I make some western citizens have different views about me when I have contact with some type of academic applications that required me to file in my parents' educational background. I always write unknown due to my parents' lack of education.
My parents grew up in Southern Sudan without any educational background. They do not even have any kindergarten education. What a life! You might have this question in mind that how would they grew up without attending school in their entire lives?
The answer involves political implications. My parents did not have an opportunity to attend school because the Sudanese government prohibits building schools in certain parts of the country, especially Southern Sudan. Therefore, I'm the first-general in my family to have an opportunity to attend college.
