About the Episode
Some 200,000 Afghans left behind during the 2021 U.S. withdrawal are now left in further limbo by the Trump administration’s refugee program suspension. Many fought alongside the U.S. and received refugee visas last year, now they may never be allowed to come to the U.S. Nick Schifrin and producer Sonia Kopelev spoke to refugees hoping to fulfill a dream they thought they had been promised.
