Aubine Ntibandetse was born in Burundi where she lived until she was three. When her family fled the violence there they were refugees until they moved to Europe. She was raised in Brussels, Belgium until the age of fifteen. In 2011 she came directly to Portland, ME with her step-mother and two younger brothers. Her father has just recently been able to join them and she sings a special Father's Day song for him, in celebration.
Aubine shares thoughts about her life in Maine and also highlights Portland's World Refugee Day which was celebrated on June 4th, though the international day of recognition will be Monday, June 20th.
Music: Aubine sings Celine Dion's "S'il Sufficient D'amier" and closes the show with "Sitya Loss" by Eddy Kenzo, (click on it to see the joyful video).
