Compare the refugee crisis described in the lesson with what you know about the status of refugees today.

Bianca is watching the evening news and hears about a terrible genocide that has occurred in a country halfway across the world. She sees images of little children in refugee camps and listens to stories about the lack of medicine and school available for them. Bianca's heart goes out to these children. What would be the BEST way for Bianca to help them?

⚪ Try to speak out against hatred in her own community, so it doesn't happen again.

⚪ Write to the president of the country where the genocide happened, asking them to stop.

⚪ Donate money to a reputable charity that works directly with the refugees in the camp.

⚪ Contact several news organizations to see if they will report the refugees' situation

Cindy is on a trip to Cambodia. While shopping in a village, she stops at a stall to ask about a little change purse. The man in the stall grabs it from her hands. "American?" he asks angrily. When Cindy nods her head, he begins to wave his arms. His daughter rushes forward, apologizing. She explains that her father was alive during the time of the Khmer Rouge and suffered greatly. Cindy is confused. For what reason might a survivor of the Cambodian Killing Fields have bad feelings about the United States?

⚪ The Khmer Rouge were following ideology that they took from the United States.

⚪ The United States helped the Khmer Rouge fight off Vietnamese occupation.

⚪ The United States has never dealt with Cambodia so there is no reason.

⚪ When they were asked to allow refugees from Cambodia, the United States refused.
