These stories break my heart. My grandmother was a refugee who told me the story of being briefly separated from her parents as she fled and the sheer terror of wondering if she’d ever see them again. The experience was still traumatizing as she shared it 60 years later.

@nickconfessore The NYT has a great business model. Reporters make a *minimum* salary double the *average* salary at other US publications. That is only possible because you have a wealthy subscriber base and write stories they like. Not really the paper of record, more the record for elites.
