Growing up I was taught the lie that America’s “greatness was tied to our goodness.” I guess we aren’t even pretending to be good anymore #progressiveclergy #christian #episcopal #episcopalchurch #refugeeswelcome #immigrantsmakeamericagreat
I was born in Bosnia, when the war started I was almost 3 years old. We fled and lived in camps located in Germany. When I was 10 we came to America as refugees.  I knew nothing about America besides the fact that there was a green statue somewhere. I used to call it the “Liberty of Statue”  I still pinch myself and feel so blessed that me and my family got the opportunity to come here and start a new life.  It’s so sad that war is still going on in the world and history just keeps repeating itself. 😞 #mystory #bosniangirl #bosna #refugee #refugeeswelcome #imadeit #feelingblessed #🇧🇦
To be fair, he was the head of just one of the many relief agencies working in Lisbon, but one thing studying his life has taught me it that it’s absolutely ok to be the problem… especially when you’re dealing with Yahtzee thugs. 💪🏼 See my series if you want to know more.  #immigrant #immigration #refugees #refugeeswelcome #refugeestories #history #historytok #immigrant #immigration #deportations #cat #cats #catsoftiktok #cattok #worldwartwo #worldwarii #lisbon #portugal #lisbonportugal #familyhistory #familytea #teatime #americanfriendsservicecommittee #quaker #quakers #americanfriends #taylorswift #imtheproblem #imtheproblemitsme

Note that this occurred after they got word the borders had closed and about 200 children were “lost”… many went into hiding. Many did not survive the war. I cannot fathom the hopelessness and loss these women must have felt. 💔 #immigrant #immigration #refugees #refugeeswelcome #refugeestories #winterboots #history #historytok #ihateithere #immigrant #immigration #deportations #cat #cats #catsoftiktok #worldwartwo #worldwarii #lisbon #portugal #lisbonportugal #familyhistory #familytea #teatime #americanfriendsservicecommittee #quaker #quakers #americanfriends
