ColumnistsOnly in the USA — refugee Madeleine Albright meets a refugee from EthiopiaBy Henry H. Bucher, Jr., Emeritus Faculty in Humanities, Austin CollegeMay 18, 2022er early years in eastern Europe during the Holocaust may have influenced her in this direction. What I will never forget is her account of a ceremony granting U.S. citizenship to mostly refugees-- she was a speaker.
