a Karen (Karin)...but not bitchy kind

Fort Wayne Indiana is home to the most Burmese outside of Burma. His name isn't Karen but the ethnic group he identifies with. He was on break from a back breaking job working in a foundry for 12 bucks an hour. Indiana is "welcoming" of immigrants if they work in meat processing and other low paying and dangerous jobs.

 

The Karen, also known as the Kayin, Kariang or Kawthoolese, are an ethnolinguistic group of Sino-Tibetan language–speaking peoples. The group as a whole is heterogeneous and disparate as many Karen ethnic groups do not associate or identify with each other culturally or linguistically.
