The Paradise That Wasn't

submitted by NAMAC on 08/04/14 1

Each year, hundreds of young people and their families come to Baltimore as refugees. They are excited to come here and to have access to education and opportunity. But, for many youth refugees, Baltimore turns out to be a difficult place, where their American-born peers tease and bully them for being different. In this short documentary, filmmaker Evodie Ngoy, herself a refugee from the Congo DRC, helps other youth refugees tell their stories in order to challenge the prejudices that refugees face in America.
