Today is #NationalImmigrantsDay.
The holiday was popularized during the Reagan administration, when immigration was still widely celebrated. Over the last two decades, and particularly since 9/11, we have seen immigration become more politicized, and the holiday naturally lost traction and attention.
Knotch was founded by two immigrants, Anda Gansca & Aron Tzimas. We know and see everyday the value and diverse perspective immigrants bring with them to this country. It's why today, we launch our new series "Opportunity Makers," profiling immigrant leaders and highlighting their stories.
We dropped the FULL interview & podcast series today, featuring: Brad Jakeman, Carla Zakhem-Hassan, Emily Chang, Fahad Khawaja, Lara Vandenberg, Lina Shields, Liya Sharif, Maryam Banikarim, Miriam (Mwangi) Mburu,Raja Rajamannar, & Vineet Mehra.
These leaders prove immigrants are opportunity makers, not opportunity takers.
