My Refugee Heritage

This video reminds me that the plight of these displaced people is not very different from a number of my great-great-great grandparents in the mid-1800s who were driven out of the United States (from Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois) into what was then part of Mexico (now Utah). They were persecuted for their religious beliefs, just as many of the refugees we see in the news today.  I wonder what my ancestors felt like and how that is similar or different from the feelings of the Kasango family.
