The story of Somalis in Minnesota begins with three words: sahan, war, and martisoor. Driven from their homeland by civil war and famine, one group of Somali sahan, pioneers, discovered well-paying jobs in the city of Marshall, Minnesota. Soon the war, news, traveled that not only was employment available but the people in this northern state, so different in climate from their A frican homeland, were generous in martisoor, hospitality, just like the Somali people themselves. The diaspora began in 1992, and today more than fifty thousand Somalis live in Minnesota, the most of any state. Many have made their lives in small towns and rural areas, and many more have settled in Minneapolis, earning this city the nickname "Little Somalia" or "Little Mogadishu." Amiable guide Ahmed Yusuf introduces readers to these varied communities, exploring economic and political life, religious and cultural practices, and successes in education and health care. He also tackles the controversial topics that command newspaper headlines: alleged links to terrorist organizations and the recruitment of young Somali men to fight in the civil war back home. This newest addition to the People of Minnesota series captures the story of the state's most recent immigrant group at a pivotal time in its history. Ahmed Ismail Yusuf is a writer and an independent translator. A s a case manager, he works at Community University Health Care Center (CUHCC), a clinic affiliated with the University of Minnesota that serves economically disadvantaged populations.Binding Type: Paperback

Made a great pillow better.
Had an awesome pillow but if I didn't fluff it before going to sleep my neck would hurt the next morning. Ordered this and put about 70% into a cardboard box to expand then shoved it into my pillow. Its been great 👍 put the rest in another pillow. Had no scent. My pillows are king sized.

Great for refreshing old memory foam pillows
Our memory foam pillows are 2 years old and need a little refreshing. We purchased this and was able to refresh both pillows to firmer than new condition.

Easy to use
I recently got one of those large body pillows that people usually use for pregnancy. Unfortunately, it was a little understuffed for my liking, and it isn't stuffed/stitched in a way that keeps the filling from moving around. The filling was bunching in places and sparse in others, causing it to be uneven. Fortunately, the pillow had a cover, and the core had a zipper where I could easily access the stuffing.
I decided to try this filling to make up for the gaps. It worked great. I grabbed the stuffing and put it directly into the pillow. I did not allow it to expand fully before stuffing. I probably should have. But this was super easy to use and absolutely solved my problem.
It doesn't smell great. There is definitely some smell that could probably be cleared by leaving it to air out for a while. I stuffed it right into the pillow and didn't use it until later that night. It wasn't so strong that it could be smelled through the pillow covering and the pillowcase.
