  • Powerful intimacy

    A podcast that centers immigrant stories without putting immigrants into a box! I’m so impressed by the diverse range of topics that Immigrantly has covered in the past. Saadia has great chemistry with her guests to the point where it feels like I’m overhearing a conversation between friends. Many of my favorite episodes stay with me long after I power off my headphones!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

My First Guest Returns: Sahar Saleem on Corporate Exits And Somatic Healing
Q: Sahar, let's go back to when you moved to LA.
Sahar describes a time of reconciling her creative ambitions with the external upheavals of the industry, including the writer's strike and a shift toward more embodied, somatic work as she navigated new opportunities.
UNRWA USA CEO Mara Kronenfeld on Gaza, Genocide And Jewish Identity
Q: Why does UNRWA continue to matter, and what about the idea of dissolution after self-determination?
UNRWA remains essential to meet urgent needs while a political solution is pursued; its dissolution would be inappropriate unless a just, durable solution with Palestinian sovereignty is achieved, since refugees still rely on its services.
UNRWA USA CEO Mara Kronenfeld on Gaza, Genocide And Jewish Identity
Q: Mara, what led you to UNRWA?
Her Fulbright experience in Syria and role leading English-language programs within UNRWA inspired a commitment to education, humanitarian work, and Palestinian empowerment, rooted in personal history and cross-cultural understanding.
Darializa Avila Chevalier Refuses to Fit in Your Box
Q: What part of this moment feels surreal to you and why?
She says the surreal feeling comes from recognizing that institutions and power structures feel out of reach, yet history shows that key changes come from movement building and community support, not from individual acts alone.
Too Foreign for Home, Too Foreign for Here (March 2025)
Q: How has your Arab identity evolved in recent years?
Her relationship with Arab identity has become more nuanced and accepting, especially amid regional conversations and personal exploration.
