About 500,000 internally displaced people exist along the eastern border of Burma.

Karen refugees have fled human right abuses in Burma to seek safety in St. Paul. These photos show Karen still living under the regime, one of the world's most oppressive. These photos come from the human rights organizations Burma Issues, Free Burma Rangers, and the Karen Human Rights Group. Also read the story from our print issue.
