- My fourth time, we drowned : seeking refuge on the world's deadliest migration route / by Hayden, Sally,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Reporter Sally Hayden was at home in London when she received a message on Facebook from an Eritrean refugee: "Hi sister Sally, we need your help ... " The sender had been held in a Libyan detention center for months, locked in with hundreds of others. But now, the surrounding city was crumbling as warring factions battled around them. They were stuck, defenseless, and with only one hope: contacting the journalist they knew would tell their true story. With that begins Hayden's staggering account of the migrant crisis across North Africa. Built on years of reporting and unprecedented contact with dozens of people inside Libyan detention centers, Hayden details their personal stories of despair, perseverance, horrific torture, and blind faith. My Fourth Time, We Drowned details the prolonged and sustained international failure that esulted in this massive humanitarian crisis, shining a light on the failure, corruption, and cynicism of organizations specifically created to prevent such tragedies. But most importantly, this book is a testament to the resilience of its subjects: how refugees and migrants stay whole and human-despite a system that wants them to be silent and disappear"--- Subjects: Boat people.; Refugees.; Emigration and immigration;

- Ontario and Quebec's Irish pioneers : farmers, labourers, and lumberjacks / by Campey, Lucille H.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Beginning in the eighteenth century, an increasing number of Irish people sought the better life that Ontario and Quebec offered. Set free from the stifling economic and social constraints that held them back in their homeland, they prospered. And yet, strangely enough, they continue to be mourned as victims. In the second book of the Irish in Canada series, Lucille Campey takes on the victim-ridden mythology of destitute Irish immigrants fleeing the famine of the 1840s. In fact, the Irish influx to Quebec and Ontario began a century earlier. Comprehensive and extensive research has been distilled to produce an informative and lively account of this great immigration saga, whose roots date back to the time of the British Conquest of New France in 1763."--- Subjects: Irish; Irish; Immigrants; Immigrants;
