More Stories about Cairo

I wrote an article to the Quest about my summer in Cairo, the full text of which can be found HERE. But for further information and some context, I'd like to offer the following links.

The Art of Flight, a video made in Cairo about the refugee situation several years ago. There is a direct reference to ArbaA Wa-Noos which is the slum that I worked in. Based on what I saw, it seems like good reporting, and offers a lot of good information on what is practically happening.

My Journal updates from this summer (main links are to the Global Urban Trek: Cairo blog)

June 25 We are Refugees - (or here at the InterVarsity site)

The following are updates which did not make it onto the InterVarsity site. I am a little upset about this, since I think they contain some information that really needs to get out there. I term them 'Retro Updates' since I finished them once I got back to the States

begun July 21 Religion and Some Politics

continued Political Floccinaucinihilipilification or a ground-level view of the UNHCR in Cairo
