"M.I.A. expressed why the plight of the refugees is a personal topic for
her. "I want to dedicate this video to my uncle Bala, my icon and role
model," she wrote. "One of the first Tamil migrants to come to the U.K.
in the 60s who went to inspire so many people as a creative, daring man
with so much swag that everything I do doesn't even touch his sides.
Thank you for helping my family come to England and taking us out of Sri
Lanka and saving us. Everything I became was to say thank you to you!"
