Gun violence in our communities, school-to-prison pipeline, advice for Somali parents | #NomadicHustle 12 w/ Ayanle Abdikarim, Executive Director at (BCG) Bridging Cultural Gaps

Ayanle and BCG have worked with elders in the East African community to develop a culturally responsive mediation approach to address issues regarding the disproportionate rates of incarceration of youth of color and to interrupt the school to prison pipeline. He has been also involved with local CBOs, faith-based groups, and organizers to also bring awareness regarding the struggle that immigrant and refugee youth face in America.

BCG has a vision of seeing East African immigrants and refugees in the King County area become empowered, politically engaged, and educationally successful community members who contribute to the well-being of the County’s population.

About Nomadic Hustle:

Historically known as a nomadic people, the Somali diaspora's presence can be felt in nearly every country and region of the world. Often pioneering as the first generation in their families to be successful in their education and careers, the process in which it takes to break those barriers is rarely highlighted. This podcast aims to celebrate and highlight Somali excellence while shedding light on the countless success stories within our community both on a local and global scale. Focusing on inspiring the younger generation is the goal, and facilitating conversations on common issues and solutions that pertain to the Somali diaspora experience will help us stay connected as a people.

Nomadic Hustle: Shedding light on our stories while engaging in conversation to enlighten our youth and inspire our community to grow.

"All we're trying to do is hustle and motivate"
