Today in class we continued watch
the God Grew Tired of Us movie on YouTube. I really like watching this video because
I had no know idea this was an option for the refugees in different parts of the
world such as Sudan or Kenya. I have relatives in places where the refugees
moved to in New York and Pittsburgh so I wonder if they have ever seen these men
and women and had no idea of the story behind them being here. While watching
the video I thought of how hard it must have been for the lost brothers to get
in the habit of the American way. It was interesting how the simple objects
that we used in everyday life created so much interest for the lost boys. For an
example a simple light switch made all the grown men wonder in amazement how a
simple switch lights up an entire room. It was funny watching the lost boys
trying to figure out the American way but it was also very inspirational how
these men changed their culture and was able to fit in with the American society.
