The Muslim Refugee Family: On the Way to Citizenship

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

In the spring of 2001, just before the world went post-9/11, my husband approached me about hosting an Afghan refugee family of four. I was hesitant. But my reservations-lice, tuberculosis, the loss of solitude-seem petty and insulting now. In the end, they were out-weighed by his enthusiasm.
