Josi (10) & Lina (1) Lina and Josi both know what it feels like to be stared at and to be asked questions about their appearance. “Are you adopted? Why is your mother so light and you so dark?” Lina was born in Paris; her biological father is from Algeria. “What’s that on your face? Did you hurt?” Josi has a birthmark on her cheek. She grew up with Lina and their mutual mother.
