Publisher's Synopsis

In the early 1990s, Somali refugees arrived in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. Later in the decade, an additional influx of immigrants arrived in a second destination of Columbus, Ohio. These refugees found low-skill jobs in warehouses and food processing plants and struggled as social 'outsiders', often facing discrimination based on their religious traditions, dress and misconceptions that they are terrorists.
