Reunited

John Bul Dau was reunited with his mother and sister in the airport and his mother collapsed to her knees crying and screaming. He made a non-profit organization for a medical clinic in his hometown of Duk, Sudan. Panther went back to Africa to see his family and marry his girl. Panther also is trying to make build a school in Sudan. Daniel and others were not a fortunate and could not reunite with their family and are still in America working, waiting and hoping.

Irony

There are problems with the people from Sudan because they work all the time with 2 or 3 jobs and miss their families and they remember the war. One man was admitted into a psychiatric hospital after being lost for 2 day but freaked out on a bus and was arrested. One got a letter from his mom that shes alive and his sister but his aunt, uncle and cousins died and they're house was burn't down. That changed his plans instead of going to college he had three jobs to send money to his family but he doesn't know if they are getting the money.

Friday in class we watch "The Lost Boys" and it was mainly about how they are ajusting to live in America and how the food on the plain tastes like soap. The Sudanians talked about becoming wealthy and going back to Sudan and helping thier families. It also showed how different the cultures between Sudan and the United States are.

"The civil war in Sudan has moved or killed more than 4 million southerners. Some fled into southern cities, such as Juba; others moved as far north as Khartoum and even into Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Egypt, and other neighboring countries. These people were unable to grow food or earn money to feed themselves, and malnutrition and starvation became widespread. The lack of investment in the south resulted as well in what international humanitarian organizations call a “lost generation” who lack educational opportunities, access to basic health care services, and little prospects for productive employment in the small and weak economies of the south or the north."
