refugee

Last December, videojournalist Jennifer Utz and Mohamed, an Iraqi refugee, talked about Mohamed's journey from Iraq to the U.S. This week, our Got Docs feature is Jennifer's documentary in production, "From Baghdad to Brooklyn," telling Mohamed's story, from his exile from Iraq after Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani called for the killing of homosexuals "in the worst, most severe way possible." Mohamed, who is gay, wound up in Syria, where Jennifer met him and took up his cause. Mohamed's story may have ended happily, but over a million Iraqis are still displaced. More of their stories are available here.
