Introducing Alluspa

by Allusaine Soumah

Meet WeOwnTV youth filmmaker, Alluspa. Suddenly crippled as a child without the use of his legs, Alluspa describes the happiest day of his life—“the time when I found myself on crutches.” Determined to not let his disability define him, Alluspa is a passionate advocate of community theater and storytelling. He believes through stories people are able to escape and imagine different outcomes than those they have experienced. As a result, they have the potential to better understand and to forgive.
