Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Sam Litzinger
Observers have sometimes said that the Washington region has the best-educated taxi drivers. Maybe it’s because professionals from around the world emigrate to the US, only to find difficulty converting their professional licenses to American ones. Join us for a look at the challenges facing immigrant professionals and possible solutions.
