Presented by Sadaf Kohistani, Afghan Immigrant
The fourth of six children, Sadaf Kohistani and her family moved from the countryside to Kabul for educational opportunities. As a graduate of Afghanistan's Alberoni University with a degree in English, she worked at the American-sponsored Lincoln Learning Centers of Kabul. When the Americans withdrew and the Taliban entered, the family's lives changed. She will speak about her childhood, her escape from Afghanistan, her arrival in the US, and what has happened to her family and country since the Taliban takeover.
