Left Behind: The Aftermath of the U.S. Withdrawal from Afghanistan

Inadmissible by VECINA

Episode notes

Almost one year ago, the U.S. withdrew from Afghanistan and the country fell to Taliban rule. While some were able to evacuate in the chaos, tens of thousands of Afghans remain in hiding, many of whom are specifically targeted due to the assistance they provided U.S. forces.

On this episode, we're joined by Afghan-American immigration lawyer Spojmie Nasiri. Over the last year, Spojmie has heard harrowing stories from many families seeking safety in the U.S. She talks about her work and experience after the fall of Kabul, and the policy choices our government has made along the way.
