Refugee Family Photos Before Resettlement to CNY
Refugee Family Photos Before Resettlement to CNY, stemmed from community interest in archiving old photos and photo albums that refugees brought with them to the United States from their former homes in Burma, Thailand, Kenya, and refugee camps along the borders of those countries. Refugee families did not have many possessions but they valued and protected old photographs of their lives before resettlement.
Dr. Kathryn Stam from the SUNY Polytechnic Institute and intern Snow Steel scanned the photos and conducted oral history interviews during the summer of 2002. This project was supported by a CLRC Access and Digitization Grant that funded one internship and modest stipends for six refugee families to include their photos in this collection.
