D & B sit down with Gabriel Ajak, a program analyst for FEMA and a refugee from the civil war in South Sudan. We speak of how he navigated these complex systems, maintained a sense of hope and self-determination, and found his calling in civil service. He hopes his story brings hope for youth currently dreaming of immigrating to the United States and compassion for those in the US who can support refugee resettlement.  If you are interested in supporting people in Afghanistan currently seeking asylum, please give what you can to: https://www.rescue.org/article/how-can-i-help-afghanistan https://www.lirs.org/give-now Music Credits: Magic Witch Beat /in work/ by Tigoolio (c) copyright 2013 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Noncommercial  (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/Tigoolio/42255 Jobcentre Plus by texasradiofish (c) copyright 2018 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Noncommercial  (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/texasradiofish/58473 Ft: Javolenus, Martijn de Boer, Speck, grapes, tigabetaz, Bucky Jonson --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/willwork4podcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/willwork4podcast/support
