Last year, about 1,300 of the 26,000 students in Boise, Idaho, were refugees, roughly a third of them in high school. Student refugees arrive after fleeing persecution in homelands that have been wracked by war, sectarian violence or ethnic cleansing. In most cases, they’ve have spent years in refugee camps or on the move. When they land, they may know little or no English. The photojournalist Angie Smith, who began photographing refugees in Boise in 2015, took this portrait of Ramla Adan, 18, at the Marian Pritchett School for teenage mothers. Ramla moved to Boise from Kenya with her parents and 5 siblings in 2004. She has 2 kids of her own, a 17-month-old and a 3-month-old, who hadn’t been born when this photo was taken. “You want to get your education, but you have to leave your child with somebody,” said Ramla, who graduated in May and hopes to attend college next spring. “Everyone has a different way of raising kids. The way my parents raised us, they really wanted us to follow their traditions. I find their tradition and culture totally weird.” Visit the link in our profile to see more @nytmag portraits of the refugees trying to to fit in as students in Boise.
