About the Book

Refugees Affected by War follows author John K. Spitzberg’s work with Ukrainian refugees who fled their country due to Russia’s attack upon Ukraine. This is an ongoing saga due to the war going on currently and Ukraine being destroyed now. The war is killing, maiming, and destroying the infrastructure of Ukraine as this book is being created. Spitzberg hopes that all who read this book will become active in advocating for peace and social justice in Ukraine and all those affected by war.
