ADVANCE FOR USE WEDNESDAY, APRIL 19, 2017 AND THEREAFTER-Abdiaziz Shaleh, 19, a Lewiston high school senior and co-captain of the soccer team walks through a snow storm while leaving a friend's house in Lewiston, Maine, Tuesday, March 14, 2017. Shaleh, whose family is from Somalia, waited with them for several years in a refugee camp in Kenya before coming to the United States and eventually settling in Lewiston. Shaleh said President Donald Trump's election has created fear in the refugee community, including among the many students who come from immigrant families. Shaleh also worries about the many refugees who are suffering in Somalia and other parts of Africa, where famine remains a huge issue. "We got that chance (to come to America)," he said. "I just wanted them to have the same chance." (AP Photo/David Goldman)
