Beth Bruno and Rebecca Deng discuss the transition from East Africa to West Michigan in 2000 when 3700 South Sudanese youth were resettled in America, among them 89 girls. Rebecca turned the trauma of her childhood into empathy and became an international speaker, activist, and soon to be author. But mostly, they talk about the ways youth are similar all over the world and the simple ways to build empathy and broaden a global perspective.
