Today in class we watched certain individuals of the Lost Boys of Sudan that were chosen to go to America on their journey. A group of boys were chosen out of the refugee class to go over to America. We watched them get on the plane, in their apartments, and at their jobs. They were excited and sad at the same time. They were excited to finally have freedom and have a normal life. But they were sad to leave their fellow brothers back in the refugee camp in Kenya, Africa.
The boys in America were not used to an American lifestyle. They weren't sure how to use everything but they eventually caught on. They all had jobs so that they could fully provide for themselves and pay the U.S. Government back for their airline ticket from Africa to America. They also wanted to use some of the money they earned in America to send things back to the rest of the Lost Boys back in Africa.
