Jessica Goudeau authors the story of two refugee families and their needed resilience as they fight to survive and belong in America. Mu Naw is from Myanmar and struggles to settle after decades in refugee camps. Despite critical times of humanitarian need, she experiences an America that has turned its back on welcoming others. Hasna is from Syria and separated from her children by the sudden ban of refugees from Muslim countries. Both women navigate shifting USA policies, and end up settling in Austin, TX. They learn firsthand the best and worst of what America has to offer.

Our moderator is Sister Claren Sellner. She is an avid reader and loves a spirited discussion.
