"Fugee" Soccer (as in Refugee)
MAY 27, 2009 WEDNESDAY AT 3PM CT

 
 
When New York Times journalist Warren St. John wrote about a soccer team in Georgia made up of child refugees from all over the world, Universal Studios jumped on the film-rights. Warren St. John's new book about the team, Outcasts United: A Refugee Team, An American Town, chronicles the hard work and heroic journeys of the players and sheds light on what it takes to build a community when we seem to have little in common.

Guest
  • Warren St. John, author of Outcasts United: A Refugee Team, An American Town
