Karenni New Year Youth Song

Song by the Karenni youth in Tukwila (Seattle) Washington. Karenni refugees, escaping constant threat from the Burmese army fighting its own citizens, have been coming to the US for about a year now, and many Karenni refugees are at risk of homelessness due to the lack of services they can access: owing to their lack of English and/or not enough time to become assimilated within the eight months they are given social support by the US and State governments. It is very important to keep the cultures of our refugees alive as they become contributing members of our (U.S.A.) society.
