We welcome Little Amal, the 12-foot puppet of a 10-year-old Syrian refugee child at the heart of Walk with Amal, an international journey that has become a symbol of human rights, especially those of refugees. Her walk is a festival of art and hope that draws attention to the tremendous number of children fleeing war, violence, and persecution worldwide.
