I recently interviewed my friend Emad Rahim. It was an interesting and insightful conversation. I love that I was surprised to learn new things about this guy.
I recently interviewed my friend, and Cambodian genocide survivor, Dr. Emad Rahim. While I enjoyed our entire conversation, one story in particular struck me as very relevant to the challenges we’re facing today as a nation.
Abdul-Rahman Chao immigrated to the US with his family at a young age. To describe him as a Chinese-American IT Professional would be a gross understatement.
Dr. Emad Rahim is a genocide survivor and refugee of the Khmer Rouge Killing Fields of Cambodia. He arrived in the US hoping to find safety, only to face poverty, abuse and the drug epidemic of 1980s Brooklyn
I’ve had close relationships with immigrants most of my life, first with my family, then with my college friends, and most recently with my wife and her family.
