Your job is to listen

One important moment from that conference: I was in a breakout session led by a Somali-American woman and former refugee, I wish I remember her name, who was doing human rights and advocacy work. The time slot must have been up against some big name because only a couple of us were there.  I probably asked for teaching advice. We were specifically talking about older refugee women who spoke no English. She gave me a directive: "Your job is to listen."
