À propos de cette écoute

Join us on this episode of Liberty Wire as host John Carlos Frey welcomes Steve Roth, the Executive Director of the Organization for Refuge, Asylum, and Migration (ORAM). Dive deep into the often overlooked crisis faced by LGBTQ+ refugees and asylum seekers worldwide. ORAM, a pioneering nonprofit, is committed to the protection and empowerment of individuals fleeing persecution based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Learn about the harrowing journeys of these individuals through transit countries, the challenges they face in refugee camps, and the complex application process for asylum in countries like the United States. Steve Roth shares heart-wrenching stories from the ground and discusses the vital support ORAM provides in terms of economic empowerment and advocacy. Discover how ORAM aids refugees in gaining skills that not only improve their current situations but also prepare them for better futures.

Steve and John also explore the sobering reality of the diminishing hope for asylum under current policies, the global rise in anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment, and the critical need for resources to support refugees. Despite the grim circumstances, Steve speaks to the resilience and hopes that drive both ORAM's mission and the refugees themselves. This episode sheds light on a crisis needing urgent attention and action from individuals worldwide.
