How Refugee Resettlement Unites America Where Right, Left and Center Work Together【電子書籍】[ Kate Rice ]
<p>It's a new day for refugees, immigrants and the Americans who welcome them. And that's a <em>lot</em> of Americans.</p> <p>Refugees, so polarizing in the headlines, are actually unifying on the ground. This book tells a story that has long flown under the radar of the national media.</p> <p>Some of the most passionate advocates for refugee resettement are churches in the Bible Belt and other red states. We're talking Kentucky, Mitch McConnell's back yard; Texas, Ted Cruz's backyard (nearly a quarter of the residents of Houston, where Sen. Cruz lives, are foreign-born. They make up 30 percent of the city's employed labor force), Utah, Idaho, North Carolina, Arkansa, Iowa and more.</p> <p>Not only do these churches help sponsor refugees, in doing so, they attract secular Americans. That means you see pro-choicers and those who oppose legal abortion working together. Democrats working with Republicans. The devout work with the secular. These are Americans who might not agree on all major issues, but who work shoulder to shoulder to resettle refugees.</p> <p>Heartening, no?</p> <p>On top of that, the last four years have seen American sentiment swing in FAVOR of immigrants. That last administration's anti-immigrant rhetoric backfired. However, there's a lot of work to do and this book is a how-to of hope packed with case studies of Americans across the country, in the Bible Belt and other red states and what they've done to welcome refugees and help them thrive.</p> <p>It's a how-to of hope.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
