re: "Chuma Family" Choir on Women's Day
Baptista Shimwe It’s a Sunday afternoon, sitting on my couch in my apartment in Ottawa. As I’m browsing through thousands of movies on Netflix, I stumbled upon The Good Lie. It is a film about young Sudanese refugees given the chance to resettle in the States. I watched it; Yes, I cried a little. It's a replica of my life. It made me remember the time when I was in Kyaka II Refugee Camp, in Uganda. I googled Kyaka II to see what I can find. Google led me to your blog Jessica. Thanks for taking me back. I grew up on those streets of Kyaka II Refugee Settlement, in Bukere. I went to Bukere Primary School. I remember very well your photo of Bukere Primary School as if it was yesterday when I was there. I also recall one of your students Julie; she was my friend, we both attended Bukere Primary School. ~Thanks for Sharing~

re: photo from 08 September 2014
Francie Crow WOW! What a growing up experience - we cannot reallly take on board what is happening and how these people manage to keep going. We don't seem to have learnt anything in the past so many years. War, misery, poverty and evil goings-on continue. Missing you - love to hear from you and know that you are well. Love you # Francie
re: A warm welcome?
Judith McClure This is a deeply moving account, Jessica. It is wonderful to know that you and Kate are involved in supporting people in this desperate situation. I feel certain that you will send your letter and I hope very much that it makes the impact it should.
re: A warm welcome?
Judith McClure This is an admirable and very worthwhile research project! Good luck to all three of you. It is great to see you and Kate Neville-Towle working together again, Jessica! What a formidable team you will make. Love, Judith and Roger
