    Canada accepted fewer than 1200 Yazidi refugees. They are challenging the country’s hands-off settlement system because they are so traumatized from ISIS. My story: https://nyti.ms/2GyYDmR

        These stories are very reminiscent of the post-traumatic stress exhibited by Holocaust survivors.

        Heartbreaking. I've only met one Yasidi family. I help refugees who have come to Southern California and each story I hear is more heartbreaking than the next. Thank you for sharing their story and I'm routing for them as I am for all our new friends.

        The Yazidi communities strength is beyond measure. Personally heard Nadia Murad speak about her experience in captivity and was horrified. Why do you think their struggle hasn't gotten as much attention? Many are still captives in Iraq 😢

        Thank you for highlighting the settlement challenges of the Yazidi and the important work undertaken by the refugee serving sector and other community based non-profits.

        A chilling tale of horror :one cd prefer to be diff.abled rather than hear it. told with empathy and concern.Hope the pain of the Yazidis is reduced.

        Powerful piece Catherine. Canada's @MIGSinstitute and others working to get parliamentarians to mobilize and pass a resolution to prosecute returning #ISIS genocidaires. http://www.concordia.ca/content/dam/artsci/research/migs/docs/Model%20Parliamentary%20resolution%20on%20returnees%20(ISIL-ISIS-Daesh).pdf …
