Beatrice and Her Boys

Beatrice and Her Boys

HI everyone ..... 

      This chapter Luma tells as story about her neighbor Beatrice Ziarty and Beatrice three sons. Beatrice from Liberia and she moved from there to the US because civil war in her country. She and her sons spend five years in a refugee camp with her children before being selected for resettlement in Clarkston in Atlanta. She gets job in Atlanta to help her sons. Shortly after arrival, she gets mugged, robbed of her new identification cards and all her money. As the result, she confines her boys to the apartment that letting them play outside because she is afraid. I shocked because she and her boys run form the civil war to safe place, but they don’t find that place because she still afraid about her boys.     

Hi everyone

          The most thing surprised me about Luma didn’t want to back to her country (Jordan) because Islamic role. In my opinion Jordan is freedom country and justice
