Resettled Refugees in Jacksonville, Florida

In 2018, we completed 16 oral history interviews with refugees who were resettled in Jacksonville, Florida, between 1999 and 2017. The videos below include a full-length oral history interview of one of the interviewed refugees and an edited compilation of select interviews that were premiered at a public event at the University of Florida in October 2018.

This project was supported by the Florida Humanities Council and University of Florida Samuel Proctor Oral History Program.
