We saw it on the news. The images still haunt us.

Two years ago this month, a desperate sea of humanity rushed the Kabul airport as the American military started mass evacuations in Afghanistan. Many were left behind to face the Taliban, while some escaped to countries like Iran and Pakistan.

For over 80,000 refugees, America is now home. Their lives continue, but our news feeds have moved on, ... more

  • This brings back my memories—but in the reverse

    My family (including 2 young children) lived in Southeast Asia for 3 years in the late 1980’s. We were in adult physical bodies but were babies in that culture. We were extremely grateful for our great and caring neighbors who took us “under their wings” who could explain the cultural differences to us and who were patient and looked out for our safety — our physical characteristics made us stick out—but we learned so much in that country which helped us understand better some cross-cultural di... more

  • Fantastic!

    It was super fantastic. I really appreciate your great work. I wish it was not single oriented (eg. not only focused on South Lake City). I feel so proud of Nazifa for all her fabulous work and our future cardiologist for her courage and hard work. I also want to contribute to an answer asked during the podcast. The source of hope is the time when brightness overcome the ignorance. And when true Afghan Soldiers rise again and Afghans’ true friends stand next to them, not leaving them behind.

  • Insightful, real and convicting

    My family has hosted two Afghan refugee families in our house for short periods working through a resettlement agency. The stories shared in this series are spot on and provide valuable insights into the minds of our neighbors that really helped me understand other ways we can serve. Our community has a long way to go to truly resettle these amazing and inspiring families but it’s a blessing to participate however we can.

  • Always help

    I do not think we will ever feel like we will do enough to help those in need. May we all keep helping & donating where we can. Beautiful heartbreaking stories.

  • Hmmmmmm

    This podcast fails to acknowledge the hardships for the US military in Afghanistan. For their sacrifice. It is despicable that while discussing the bombing of Kabul, there was not a single, even fleeting, mention of the 13 US Marines, sailor and soldier that were killed. It is disgusting and unforgivable.

    You discuss at great length how hard and bad it is for the refugees to be here. And all they don’t have and all that isn’t being done for them by our government. They have won the lottery... more
