The Iraqi Refugee Crisis and Why It Matters

Noah and Natalie Baker Merrill, who just returned from a 4-month visit living and working among Iraqi refugees in Syria and Jordan, are traveling to cities across the country offering first-hand observations of the crisis. The couple will also discuss ways the U.S. could become "honest brokers for reconciliation," including setting a concrete timeline for the removal of all U.S. troops, bases and mercenaries from Iraq, allowing the country to begin the long work of building a peaceful future. Natalie and Noah are participating in the American Friends Service Committee Iraq speakers bureau.
