Podcast Overview

Legal immigrants are everywhere in the US workforce and yet, the dialogue on immigration policy, its politics and impacts rarely include our voices, stories and first-hand lived realities. We invite everyday immigrants behind the scenes, beyond the rhetoric and the cacophony of online debates, to talk to us about the role of immigration in shaping the trajectory of their lives and livelihoods. This podcast is hosted by me, Ananya R. Our producers are Anvit and Arjun. For more information on the podcast, go to https://wethelegalpodcast.com/. We can be reached on Twitter @wethelegal.

S2: By Design — Trailer

Season 1 was a conversation on the pathway from coming to the US as an international student and going on to navigate the employment-based immigration pipeline to Permanent Residence. It was a deep dive into the nuts and bolts of the employment-based immigration processes- work visas, student work authorizations, application for permanent residence etc. We talked about the various unseen struggles in that pathway through the voices of guests who had experienced them. In Season 2, we start with asking a larger question. How did we get to the system we now have? What came before it? What is its legacy and how does it all tie into the serious problems in immigration today?

Looking back

When we started We, The Legal we did so with the aim of defining the problem. Indeed, that was the name of the introduction episode! Now, 4 episodes down the road we hope that we have conveyed the details, depth and disruption behind some of the most common issues in the employment-based legal immigration system that we have today. We chose to be vulnerable, open, transparent. We picked guests who could provide a wide lens on the issues behind their professional facades and often significant accomplishments. But, while the series of four episodes concludes with us tying up the loose ends, the issue goes on as does the endeavor we have embarked upon, to shine a light on the lives being lived on this path. If you have been, thank you for listening to a podcast that gives everyday immigrants a chance to share their stories. We want to hear from you, our listeners, no matter where you happen to stand on the arena of immigration. As an audience, a stakeholder, a curious bystander or out on the streets, far away from it all. Have something to share with us? Leave us a voice message <a href="https://anchor.fm/we-the-legal">here</a> (which might be featured in a future episode!). Alternatively, you can find us on <a href="https://twitter.com/wethelegal">Twitter</a>/<a href="https://instagram.com/wethelegal">Instagram </a>at @wethelegal and you can email us at <a href="mailto:wethelegal@outlook.com">wethelegal@outlook.com</a>. Share your opinions and stories, your anecdotes and challenges because the tapestry of this discussion is made rich by all of those who participate in it factually, respectfully and productively. Note: The conclusion episode was recorded nearly 6 months back, prior to the pandemic and the recent spate of immigration related actions taken by the administration. Some elements of the episode therefore, reflect a different time but hey, while the times may be different, the issues are very much the same, and indeed, have sometimes compounded.
