Chances are you've heard about refugees in the news or in conversations in your community. But who are refugees, where are they coming from, and how are we incorporating them into our society? This class is designed to provide an overview of global forced migrations, including 1) How refugee situations are created and result in people who flee their countries, 2) How a person becomes a refugee and travels to America, and 3) What situations refugees face when they get here. By painting a picture of refugee resettlement and history, this class will help you better understand the experiences of your neighbors who are navigating new lives in America.
