Part 3: The Lost Boys

The Boys have been living in America for two mouths. They are starting to feel comfortable in the culture, and they continue to work hard and make money. As time goes on the boys start to realize that their neighbors are not very fond of them and have been complaining to the police. One of the changes that they have found difficult for them is that if you are ever lost, you can just walk up to someone and ask them for help and they will help. This is not how things work in America, if you just walk you to someone's house there are most likely to call the cops or ask you to leave. They were also told by the police to not travel in groups for Americans felt intimidated by them. These are some of the challenges that the boys have had to face. Now about a year and a half living in America, they were feeling lonely , they no longer were allowed to walk in groups together, or spend time at home because they would be working, or in school. They decided to drop out of college and save their money to invite some of the lost boys from Kenya refugee camp. They will always have the relationship with the boys and will never forget the sadness of their country, or the joy of coming to America.
