In Outcasts United New York Times reporter (and Alabama native) Warren St. John tells the story of a group of refugee boys from all over the world (Sudan, Congo, Kosovo, Liberia, Iraq, Afghanistan….) who all play on the same soccer team, The Fugees, in Clarkston, Georgia. The story of the boys, their Jordanian coach, and the reluctant refugee haven of Clarkston itself form an unforgettable picture of community and identity.St. John reads tonight at 7PM @ McNally Jackson Booksellers in Soho.
