Roya Hakakian: A Beginner’s Guide to America

This week, Martha sits down with poet, journalist, and writer Roya Hakakian, to discuss her new book, A Beginner's Guide to America: For the Immigrant and the Curious.  Roya tells The Untold Story of her American immigration experience as a 19-year-old Iranian refugee, and the struggles she faced when traveling to the United States with only a backpack and very little English to get her through her journey.  Follow Martha on Twitter: @MarthaMacCallum
