Neuware - "[From] an influential educational leader and activist…an impassioned, penetrating critique and inspiring model for progress."—Kirkus Reviews, starred reviewIt was a wrong turn that changed everything. When Luma Mufleh—a Muslim, gay, refugee woman from hyper-conservative Jordan—stumbled upon a pick-up game of soccer in Clarkston, Georgia, something compelled her to join.The players, 11- and 12-year-olds from Liberia, Afghanistan, and Sudan, soon welcomed her as coach of their ragtag but fiercely competitive group.Drawn into their lives, Mufleh learned that few of her players, all local public school students, could read a single word. She asks, "Where was the America that took me in That protected me How can I get these kids tothatAmerica "This powerful memoir, Learning America, traces the story of how Mufleh grew a group of kids into a soccer team and then into a nationally acclaimed network of schools for refugee children. The journey is inspiring and hard-won: Fugees schools accept only those most in need; no student passes a grade without earning it; the failure of any student is the responsibility of all.Soccer as a part of every school day is a powerful catalyst to heal trauma, create belonging, and accelerate learning.Finally, this gifted storyteller delivers provocative, indelible portraits of student after student making leaps in learning that aren’t supposed to be possible for children born into trauma—stories that shine powerful light on the path to educational justice and illuminate the modern immigrant experience for all of America’s most left-behind.- A Fight for Educational Justice: Discover the hard-won journey of creating the Fugees, a nationally acclaimed network of schools that holds itself responsible for the failure and success of every refugee student.- Healing Childhood Trauma: Learn how soccer becomes a powerful catalyst to heal trauma, create a sense of belonging, and accelerate learning for children who have survived the unimaginable.- An Unforgettable Refugee Story: Follow Luma Mufleh—a gay, Muslim, refugee woman from Jordan—as a wrong turn in Clarkston, Georgia leads her to find her life’s purpose and challenge the American education system.- A Powerful Social Justice Read: An impassioned and penetrating critique of a system that fails its most left-behind students, offering an inspiring model for progress that will spark conversation for any book club.…
