Maybe if this was a 150+ pages novella ... 
But this way with close to no worldbuilding and no explanations whatsoever - not to mention lots of words that are probably part of a sociolect that one simply doesn't learn in school -, I had no idea what was going on. I mean, I got the big bits, persecution and racism. But everything around it was a blur.
