Send us a text Originally hailing from Senegal, Aly Wane came to the United States with a diplomatic visa at the tender age of 9-years-old. His mother hoped that the United States would provide him with an excellent education and future opportunities. Eventually on a student visa, Aly received two educations: 1) An education through academia and 2) An education on how difficult, rigid and cruel the U.S. immigration system is. After following all the rules, he found himself in a terrible predicament after his mother tragically died overseas: without lawful status and trapped in a country that he considered his "home". He could not even go abroad to pay his respects to his mother. Had he left, he would likely never be able to return to the U.S. He chose to remain in the U.S., his adopted homeland. While many would remain disillusioned by this situation and go underground, Aly regrouped and found a new purpose. Living in Syracuse, New York, he came out publicly in 2012 as undocumented and became a community and human rights organizer. Aly has focused his advocacy on antiwar, economic justice, racial and immigrant justice. He has become an active voice for peace and humanity. His organizing has been connected with numerous organizations including the American Friends Service Committee, the Workers' Center of Central NY, Syracuse Peace Council, the Black Immigration Network, the UndocuBlack Network and the Black Alliance for Just Immigration. He has also served on the Board of the Alliance of Communities Transforming Syracuse, a politically progressive interfaith organization. While Aly has been placed in a difficult position, he has always been about helping others and the community. We should all strive to be like Aly.…

Immigration Ain't Easy Ep. 34- Immigration Attorney & "Renaissance Man" David Asser 1:07:26

för 17 dagar sedan1:07:26

1:07:26

Send us a text David Asser is a jack of all trades. A man of many talents and skills. He has been a comedian, an actor, a television and film producer/director/writer, an attorney, and even the Press Secretary and Spokesperson of the Justice Department of The Netherlands in The Hague and as an International Policy Advisor for the Dutch Immigration and Naturalization Service. What David has more than all else is a huge heart and a desire to help immigrants find what he once did: The American dream. David was born in Amsterdam and lived in the Netherlands until 1986 when he moved to the United States for a few years before returning to his homeland to pursue a career in theatre, film and television. He succeeded in those industries for several years before shifting to a markedly different field: working for the Dutch government where he was involved in numerous high-profile cases and evolving immigration issues in Europe. In 1999, David immigrated to the US permanently and has since been working in the immigration law field where he has a diverse background that covers a wide spectrum of legal issues including deportation matters, litigation in federal court, asylum, business immigration, temporary visas, family based immigration and international mobility. David has received numerous honors for his pro bono work. He is a well-respected mentor to many peers. His son, Ben, has followed him into the law and says the following about his father: "Growing up around my father, I always marveled at his compassion, understanding, and tenacity when assisting his immigration clients. To his clients, he was not just a lawyer, he was a pillar of strength – a reminder that even if it seemed that hope was lost, he would do everything he could to provide a light at the end of the tunnel. While I will be focusing my practice on transactional law, I will aim to be more than a lawyer, but a pillar of strength for my clients."…

Send us a text Akash Desai immigrated to the United States, but that process was not overly difficult in comparison to his struggles to retain high-skilled foreign workers in this country. Akash is the Co-CEO of CyFlare, a fast-growing cybersecurity solutions company based in West Seneca, New York. In this episode, Akash speaks about the trials and tribulations of being an executive in the high tech industry and the difficulties in trying to get work visas, like the elusive H-1B, for international talent. The insight provided by Akash illustrates how many companies are forced to decide between taking a much costlier and uncertain route of trying to keep foreign nationals legally in the U.S. versus having them work remotely from abroad. The modern U.S. immigration system often provides more of an incentive for companies to have their employees work offshore. Akash is joined by Danielle "Dani" Rizzo, a highly recognized immigration lawyer who discusses her own journey in the immigration law field. She also provides details about how difficult it is for U.S.-based businesses to get the proper work visas for much needed foreign workers and the absurdities of the process to keep them legally in the U.S. This episode serves as just another cry for better legal pathways for both U.S. employers and foreign employees.…

Send us a text Safwat Saleem joins me in this episode to talk about his journey from Pakistan to the United States and how immigrant themes are prevalent in his artwork. Safwat is a multidisciplinary artist with a key focus on cultural loss resulting from assimilation. As described on his website, "Safwat’s body of work weaves together themes of preservation, desire to belong, resistance and joy as an immigrant father raising a multiracial child in the American Southwest." Safwat, now a Pakistani-American, talks about his arrival in the U.S. as an F-1 student visa holder attending college in Mississippi and the cultural differences that came with living there as a practicing Muslim. He speaks of his motivations to become an artist and how he uses satire as a tool to challenge perceptions. Safwat art is multidimensional as he uses graphic design, illustration and writing to film and sound. Safwat believes in using his art for social impact and has collaborated with non-profit and change-making organizations like Fine Acts, 18 Million Rising, RUN AAPI, SAADA and TED. Safwat is a pizza connoisseur and that makes him a-OK in my book!…

Send us a text THIS IS PART 2 OF A 2-PART AFTER SCHOOL SPECIAL EPISODE In this final part of our discussion, we delve more into the loving bond between Alejandra and Jesus and how her deportation case made it even stronger. Life is complicated. One thing that we know is nobody's perfect (besides Donald Trump). Alejandra Pablos learned the hard way after being detained for two years at the Eloy Detention Center and she's hoping for a second chance. While Ale was born on side of the border and her brother, Jesus Magaña was born on the other side. Jesus, a U.S. citizen. Ale, who lived in the U.S. for nearly her entire life, finally realized she was not a U.S. citizen in her teens. She eventually became a permanent resident but after a difficult time that resulted in convictions for DUI and drug possession, Ale found herself in deportation proceedings in 2011. Ale has become an important voice in immigrant and women's reproductive health rights. Jesus, a veteran of the Air Force, is now a licensed social worker who helps immigrants by evaluating their mental health. While Jesus and Ale have many differences and their pasts are remarkably distinct, they have one strong commonality: Saving Ale from deportation. The two talk with me about their childhoods, the bond that has strengthened as they've grown and their fight to keep Ale in the United States. Dr. Goldman's notes: Only Jesus cried...…

I am extremely fortunate to meet so many extraordinary people and to help them to achieve their dreams of living in the US. At my core I do not believe that borders should separate families, keep people from safety or prevent people from working where they want and employers from hiring the workers they want or need. That is what drives me to fight for my clients."…

However, El never forgot his roots and in 2010 he founded "The Forgotten Children", a non-profit geared towards helping the street children ( talibè) in Senegal by achieving goals of self-sufficiency. What began as a means of providing clothes and other necessities to the orphaned, impoverished and homeless children in M'bour Senegal, West Africa, became a larger mission.

El published his memoir, Dream On, Seydou: A Memoir Of A Senegalese Immigrant, where you can learn about his life story, the motivation behind his non-profit organization and how they took a desolate plot of land and turned it into a place of education and safety for some of the most vulnerable in our world.
