Continued from yesterday, today in human geo we continued to watch the documentary about the lost boys of Sudan. We met back up with the boys a year after living in America, they were registered American citizens. Today’s portion was about the first time the boys got turned loose and had to begin to provide for themselves. They had to get jobs, pay their rent, buy their own food, etc. john had 2 jobs at the time, he worked in a factory filling gaskets, and flipping burgers at McDonalds. Panther had found a job at the high end hotel and restaurant 4 seasons. Daniel found a job sorting through checks at a bank in his town. Although they had found jobs and such, they were forced to stop traveling in groups because some mothers and store owners thought that the big group of tall black men was very intimidating. John then received a letter from Sudan saying that his friends were all killed by the government people but his immediate family was alive but were struggling with bad health and no clothes. John then got another job and sent all his paychecks out to Sudan for his family to be well.
