Ok this is incredible. I am still buzzing from getting that notification on my phone! Thank you for sharing this story Apple News! Rolling Stone
Spoke with Apple News today about spending the holidays reporting on migrant families sheltering at O'Hare for Rolling Stone: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how…
Casey and Jamie's story resonated with the refugee experiences I've documented. There is a growing diaspora of people fleeing their homes to protect their personal freedoms. They are indeed America's refugees. Thx to Rolling Stone & Kate Storey for helping me tell this story!
Man, a little stunned by the words, Terry Noland! This piece was a doozy, and, in some ways, 9 years in the making. I'm glad I gave it the time it needed. Super grateful to Chrishona. And to Terry who, despite my hesitation, kept encouraging me to dig back in.
It took me a long time to write this piece. By some counts, almost a decade. Sometimes stories have to reveal themselves to you. That's what happened here. In the end, I think Chrishona's story was always where this project was meant to land. chicagomag.com/chicago-magazi… Chicago magazine
The highest praise — thank you Don Van Natta Jr. and Megan Greenwell for including the Chrishona piece this week! After several years sitting with this story, it really means a lot to have you all read and witness it.
