Book Synopsis : A provocative, conversation-sparking exploration of refugee experiences told in their own words, for readers of Karla Cornejo Villavicencio’s The Undocumented Americans and Viet Thanh Nguyen Forced to leave their homes, they came to America In this intimate and eye-opening book, Diya Abdoâ€â€daughter of refugees, U.S. immigrant, English professor, and activistâ€â€shares the stories of seven refugees. Coming from around the world, they’re welcomed by Every Campus A Refuge (ECAR), an organization Diya founded to leverage existing resources at colleges to provide temporary shelter to refugee families. Bookended by Diya’s powerful essay "Radical Hospitality" and the inspiring coda “Names and Numbers,†each chapter weaves the individual stories into a powerful journey along a common theme: • Life Before (“The Body Leaves its Soul Behindâ€Â) • The Moment of Rupture(“Proof and Persecutionâ€Â) • The Journey (“Right Next Doorâ€Â) • Arrival/Resettlement(“Back to the Marginsâ€Â) • A Few Years Later (“From Camp to Campusâ€Â) The lives explored in American Refuge include the artist who, before he created the illustration on the cover of this book, narrowly escaped two assassination attempts in Iraq and now works at Tyson cutting chicken. We learn that these refugees from Burma, Burundi, Iraq, Palestine, Syria, and Uganda lived in homes they loved, left against their will, moved to countries without access or rights, and were among the 1% of the "lucky" few to resettle after a long wait, almost certain never to return to the homes they never wanted to leave. We learn that anybody, at any time, can become a refugee.
