Roberts Class of 2009 An honors thesis submitted to the Department of Anthropology at Connecticut College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts Acknowledgements I would like to give thanks to all who have provided assistance in this past year. First and foremost, I would like to thank the Hiyot organization, especially its director, Nathalie, who gave me the opportunity to work with this community. And special thanks to the three employees of the youth club in Kiryat Motzkin for being patient with me; and to all of the teenagers, who flew in and out of the club, for taking me in as one of their own.
