There’s No Place Like Home
In Canada, US war resisters are currently in limbo
Is Canada a safe haven for conscientious objectors from the US? It’s not yet clear.
Also, a group of Haitian soccer players pack for college. An Indian engineer, raised in the US, goes back and meets a stranger with a life lesson. And a reporter moves back to her hometown in France where medieval bells still dictate the pace of life. Plus, we meet a woman who has made the entire world her home. We end with a conversation about race, music, and homesickness with writer Teju Cole.
