After fleeing the war in Syria and resettling in Dallas, Texas, in 2015, Bothina Matar and her family are thriving. She and her husband are working, and their two kids are doing well in school. But not everything in Bothina’s life is as it should be: her sister and mother remain stuck in Syria, where bread can be hard to come by and explosions can come at any moment.

Watch as Bothina describes the situation her family is facing and her message to the president-elect: “I hope he will keep his promises.”
