Green Card Youth Voices: Immigration Stories from a FARGO High School
Green Card Youth Voices: Immigration Stories from a Fargo High School is a collection of thirty-one personal essays written by students from Fargo South High School in North Dakota. Included with each essay is a first-person video narrative. These are the memories, realities, and hopes of young people from twenty-two different countries who, by the turning of countless events, were brought together into one classroom. In their own voices, these students describe their childhoods, reasons for leaving, first impressions of this land, and dreams of how they will contribute to it. These digital and written stories highlight the resilience, bravery, and courage that these new Americans have gained as they have overcome tremendous adversity to be a part of this country.
30 personal essays of immigrant youth from 22 countries
Foreword written by Betty Gronneberg
