Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Traveling Refugee; Or the Cause and Cure of the Rebellion in the United States: Embracing a Sketch of the State of Society in the South, Before, and at the Commencement of the Rebellion; Illustrated by Facts and Incidents Questions, such as the following, will no doubt often be asked: Of what does your book treat? 'nhat gave rise to it, and What is the object of it? The title page furnishes a clue to the p1ope1 answer; to which I briefly add, that if I know my own heart the piime object has been to do my duty to God, myself and my fellow beings, and to promote the general welfare of my country, politically, morally and religiously: to advance the tempo ral, spiritual and eternal interests of the human family. The circumstances which have surrounded me where my lot has been cast, have circumscribed my Opportunities for usefulness, in this line, to very narrow limits, which has been a source of mortification of feeling and anxiety of mind. These things, i1r'-connection with other considera tions, led me to this work, with the h0pe that through this medium I might have access for good to the minds of many, whom otherwise I never could reach, and thus benefit some where my face can never be seen, nor my voice be heard; and that, too, when the footsteps of time, in its long march, Shall have so erased from earth the visible signs of its pres ent inhabitants that the resting places of most of their mor tal remains will be unknown to the living.

Book While the Earth Sleeps We Travel

Download or read book While the Earth Sleeps We Travel written by Ahmed M. Badr and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking collection of poetry, personal narratives, and art from refugee youth around the world. Foreword by actor and UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Ben Stiller. Beginning in 2018, Ahmed M. Badr—an Iraqi-American poet and former refugee—traveled to Greece, Trinidad & Tobago, and Syracuse, New York, holding storytelling workshops with hundreds of displaced youth: those living in and outside of camps, as well as those adjusting to life after resettlement. Combining Badr’s own poetry with the personal narratives and creative contributions of dozens of young refugees, While the Earth Sleeps We Travel seeks to center and amplify the often unheard perspectives of those navigating through and beyond the complexities of displacement. The result is a diverse and moving collection—a meditation on the concept of "home" and a testament to the power of storytelling.

Book We Are Displaced

Download or read book We Are Displaced written by Malala Yousafzai and published by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this powerful book, Nobel Peace Prize winner and New York Times bestselling author Malala Yousafzai introduces the people behind the statistics and news stories about the millions of people displaced worldwide. After her father was murdered, María escaped in the middle of the night with her mother. Zaynab was out of school for two years as she fled war before landing in America. Her sister, Sabreen, survived a harrowing journey to Italy. Ajida escaped horrific violence, but then found herself battling the elements to keep her family safe. Malala's experiences visiting refugee camps caused her to reconsider her own displacement — first as an Internally Displaced Person when she was a young child in Pakistan, and then as an international activist who could travel anywhere except to the home she loved. In We Are Displaced, Malala not only explores her own story, but she also shares the personal stories of some of the incredible girls she has met on her journeys — girls who have lost their community, relatives, and often the only world they've ever known. In a time of immigration crises, war, and border conflicts, We Are Displaced is an important reminder from one of the world's most prominent young activists that every single one of the 68.5 million currently displaced is a person — often a young person — with hopes and dreams. "A stirring and timely book." —New York Times

Download or read book U S Immigration Policy written by Council on Foreign Relations. Independent Task Force on U.S. Immigration Policy and published by Council on Foreign Relations. This book was released on 2009 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few issues on the American political agenda are more complex or divisive than immigration. There is no shortage of problems with current policies and practices, from the difficulties and delays that confront many legal immigrants to the large number of illegal immigrants living in the country. Moreover, few issues touch as many areas of U.S. domestic life and foreign policy. Immigration is a matter of homeland security and international competitiveness, as well as a deeply human issue central to the lives of millions of individuals and families. It cuts to the heart of questions of citizenship and American identity and plays a large role in shaping both America's reality and its image in the world. Immigration's emergence as a foreign policy issue coincides with the increasing reach of globalization. Not only must countries today compete to attract and retain talented people from around the world, but the view of the United States as a place of unparalleled openness and opportunity is also crucial to the maintenance of American leadership. There is a consensus that current policy is not serving the United States well on any of these fronts. Yet agreement on reform has proved elusive. The goal of the Independent Task Force on U.S. Immigration Policy was to examine this complex issue and craft a nuanced strategy for reforming immigration policies and practices.

Book Boat Refugees in the Mediterranean  Tackle the Root Causes or Build Fortress Europe

Download or read book Boat Refugees in the Mediterranean Tackle the Root Causes or Build Fortress Europe written by Julian Traublinger and published by Anchor Academic Publishing (aap_verlag). This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'It is not immigration, which causes problems - it is how it is dealt with politically. It is also not Europe, which is getting attacked - however, the walls of a fortress, are being built at the moment.' Corinna Milborn, 'Gestürmte Festung Europa...' In this study about the boat people in the Mediterranean the emphasis lies on Italy and on the EU policy on refugees in the Mediterranean in cooperation with African states. Regarding the EU policy it deals particularly with the border security agency Frontex that has access to a rapidly growing budget coming from the EU funds. The advocates of the EU politics like to stress that their policies are in the best interest of the migrants themselves, their native countries and their destination countries, which means that a 'triple win situation' can be produced. However, refugee aid and other human rights organizations criticize harshly that refugees are criminalized and that their legitimate right are not guaranteed. The author depicts state networks on illegal migration and follows the question whether the EU has the wish to grant the refugees their rights.

Book Travels in the Land of Hunger

Download or read book Travels in the Land of Hunger written by Domenico Italo Composto-Hart and published by Dragon Bone Books. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 2004 - after living in Tokyo, Japan, for over three years pursuing a career as a freelance musician - science fiction and fantasy author Domenico Italo Composto-Hart set off on a half-year backpacking journey through the lands of East and Southeast Asia, Siberia, Central Russia, the Baltic states, the Nordic countries, and Eastern and Western Europe. Traveling by foot, bus, train, and boat - and seeing the world through the analytical lens of anthropology, archaeology, and economics - Domenico documents, researches, and deciphers the developing nations he encounters as they rise through the turbulence of unregulated Western capitalism and globalization. Travels in the Land of Hunger is the author's reflective account of the dark, long-lasting impact of Western colonialism and imperialism, the Vietnam War, the Khmer Rouge regime, the 1997 Asian financial crisis, and the sex tourism and sex trafficking industries in Southeast and East Asia. It is also a narrative of finding exotic beauty, inspiration, inner strength, and unexpected love.

Book Refugee Life in the Confederacy

Download or read book Refugee Life in the Confederacy written by Mary Elizabeth Massey and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2001-05-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil War spawned tens of thousands of southern refugees. Some fled from bombardment or rumor of invasion. Others were exiled by enemy commanders. Virtually none anticipated the extreme hardships they would encounter. Through diligent research in manuscripts and newspapers, Mary Elizabeth Massey brings vivid detail to all aspects of southern refugee life. Thrilling tales of displaced people scrambling for trains or making river crossings recapture the poignancy of civilians trapped between advancing and retreating armies. Massey examines the psychological effects of the war on the homeless, the humor they found in their difficulties, their activities in adopted communities, private and public aid, and legislation concerning them. The refugees created enormous problems for the southern war effort as they crowded into the ever-contracting areas of the Confederacy, disabling wartime transportation and contributing to the congestion of cities to the point that it was difficult to feed and house them. Historians have long recognized the refugees’ importance, and writers of fiction their appeal, but Massey’s Refugee Life in the Confederacy—originally published in 1964—marks the first full telling of their story. With a new introduction by George C. Rable, this comprehensive study is essential to a thorough understanding of the Civil War.
