Emigrating to the US: a Venezuelan's Perspective (Buford Highway Community Archive Preview)

This episode is a special preview of what We Love Buford Highway has been working on this 2022: Buford Highway's first community archive. This archive will have stories told directly from people in the community, people that come to our feeding events, people that make up the Buford Highway we all love. Contrary to this podcast, the people in the community archive are not interviewed, they are simply sharing a story they want to share, and we are simply creating space for them to do so.  In honor of Hispanic/Latino/x Heritage Month, we are sharing a preview of Samuel's story, who emigrated to the US from Venezuela. Paired with excerpts from his interview, our Program Coordinator Daisy Astudillo highlights some important notions and concepts in his story that are worth reflecting on.  We hope you enjoy this taste of the community archive, and we encourage you to share what you think about this format with us wherever you typically find us (Instagram DM, Facebook DM, anywhere else!).
