Comments from the Judges
“A smart, fresh look at the implications of recent policy changes, and well told: the narrative moves briskly, helped along by a strong sense of place and well-chosen details.”
“Interesting piece and nice detail that helps us understand in more detail the experiences that so many refugees have before arriving in the US.”
