Subject: Syria Refugee Video from a popular youtuber and author


John Green, who is a well-known young adult novelist (his films have been
made into two movies) and a youtube video maker, put this video up on his
vlog yesterday about reconnecting with a Syrian refugee family in Illinois
that he met in Jordan. He debunks some of the refugee myths in the video
and he also makes it easy to empathize. I don’t know if we want to
highlight this, but I thought you might appreciate it and we could share it
with some folks. The style of his vlog is a conversation between him and
his brother which is why he begins and ends the video speaking to “Hank”.
