Analysis Of 'Salsa Dancing Through The Social Sciences'

Another article that I researched through this semester that I think would be beneficial to discuss within the literature review is the experience that denied asylum seekers experience, much of my work in Oxford, England was with those who had been denied asylum and were currently working to re-apply or to submit an appeal. I think that if the European general public was aware of these types of experiences, they may have different opinions about refuges and allowing them to become a part of their
