Experiences of an American Muslim, Immigration Attorney Sahar Taman*
This fall semester, I had the pleasure of meeting Immigration Attorney Sahar Taman during my time as a student in Dr. Iman Alramadan’s 5th-year Arabic class. Ms. Taman is a highly accomplished lawyer, activist, and public servant. It was incredible to hear about her experiences and her advice for those interested in the world of immigration advocacy, a field I am passionate about as I look to use my Arabic language skills post-graduation. I have often viewed this area of public services as daunting and time-intensive, but Ms. Taman serves as an important reminder that such work is both possible and necessary.
