The refugee crisis has been in the forefront of world news for the last two decades. The flow of people escaping from war and poverty numbers in the millions. Today one of these refugees, made famous by National Geographic, was arrested. This 12-year old girl was pictured on the June 1985 cover of the magazine and “captured the world’s attention.” Her story, like many of the refugee stories, was a combination of horror and bravery. Read her story and perhaps you may want to find out more information on this world-wide problem. The MVCC library has an interesting selection of books and articles that address this issue.
