I paid a visit to a large Middle Eastern market in Central Phoenix to find items that would work well for this family. The owner of the market introduced me to a young Sudanese teen, Ibrahim, who was manning the cash register.
A Yemeni woman in a colorful hijab overheard our conversation. She approached me, saying, “We can just google it.” She took me up and down the same aisles, consulting her phone, selecting items, and cheerfully tossing them into my cart.
