Susan Cohen: Journeys from There to Here

Monday, January 31
7:00 pm

Susan Cohen is an internationally recognized immigration lawyer known for her work fighting the 2017 Travel Ban and representing hundreds of thousands of foreign students in litigation opposing dangerous COVID-related student visa policies. Susan visits City of Asylum to discuss her new collection of essays, Journeys from There to Herea collection that walks us alongside her clients as they share their incredible journeys coming to America while overcoming unimaginable obstacles abroad.

Journey from There to Here

Sprinkled with amusing anecdotes, tense junctures, and heartwarming segments, Journeys from There to Here brings us front and center at the courtroom learning about US immigration policies and systems-which often become an immigrant’s greatest hurdle. Susan is joined by Gazmend Kapllani whose story is prominently featured in Susan’s work.
