day 20 - three immigrant stories for thanksgiving week (Part two)

Read Now
 
The national nonprofit organization StoryCorps has helped nearly 500,000 people record interviews with one another since its founding in 2003.   The three audio stories for this week capture different immigrant experiences, from the friendship arising from the generosity of an undocumented immigrant who cooks meals for homeless men and women in her community, to the growing recognition of a young daughter who misses her father as he works multiple jobs to support her education.  Each is about 2 minutes in length.

“I will do four, five, ten, a hundred jobs for your education.”
Mario Loiseau, in conversation with his 9 year old daughter, Mabou Loiseau, a “science and language prodigy already studying college-level algebra.”    Audio.
