Meera Pathmarajah was a young Southern California teen when an opportunity to travel to Sri Lanka came in the early 2000s. Travelling with a group of fellow Tamil youth interested in visiting their parents’ homeland, Pathmarajah toured areas ravaged by the Sri Lankan civil war. Touched by the countless children on her journey who would ask -- “Akka, eppa thirumbi varuvingal?” Sister, when will you come back? Pathmarajah returned to the States knowing her life would never be the same.
