BHS Students Share Their Stories on WXXI’s Connections
Brighton High School students Esma Okutan, Kate Liavanava, and Stivia Jorgji were on WXXI’s Connections with Megan Mack on Monday, Dec. 7 for a segment on the stories of young people who have come to Rochester as immigrants or refugees. A new book called "Green Card Youth Voices: Immigration Stories from Upstate New York High Schools" chronicles their journeys through a series of essays written by the students themselves.
