Summary
Different Roots, Common Dreams : New Hampshire's Cultural Diversity
For three years, photographer Becky Field has been welcomed into the lives of New Hampshire's immigrants and refugees. In a state known for low diversity, she has been served traditional food, experienced cultural celebrations and witnessed sacred ceremonies. This book of her photographs with stories by immigrants shows that, while we are different in many ways, we all have the same dreams to have safe homes, supportive jobs, education for our children, and freedom to practice cultural and religious traditions.
