For example in Ishmael Beah's story "we can be rehabilitated i would emphasize, and point to myself as an example. i would always tell people that i believe people have the resilience to outline their suffering, if given a chance."]]> 2017-05-19 14:40:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172819787 kylenburns523 https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172822831 2017-05-19 14:53:41 UTC https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172822831 kylenburns523 https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172823036 Author Ishmael Beah writes a memoir called A Long Way Gone.

this was a significant event because it was the first time he was alone.]]> 2017-05-19 18:08:21 UTC https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172866326 kylenburns523 https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172870048 "As soon as we had crossed the clearing, the rebels sent some of their men to catch those who had made it to the bush. they started chasing and shooting at us we ran for longer than an hour without stop."

this is important because this is the first time he sees New York and coming to New York gave him the place to escape to and got him a passport and visa.]]> 2017-05-19 18:42:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172871550 kylenburns523 https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172881618 2017-05-19 19:57:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172881618 kylenburns523 https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172881765 2017-05-19 19:58:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172881765 kylenburns523 https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172882493 2017-05-19 20:07:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kylenburns523/vkqlzrc0tgs6/wish/172882493
