In this episode, I sit down with Salia Paul Kamara (from Sierra Leone), a graduate student pursuing a Master’s in Music at Drew Theological School, and Ama Kyei (from Ghana), a Finance graduate student, to discuss their experiences as international students at Drew University. We dive into their journey of integration, how they navigate connections with both African and African American communities, and the cultural adjustments they’ve made along the way. From academic challenges to personal growth, this conversation offers a candid look into their lifestyle, perspectives, and the unique realities of being an international student in the U.S. Tune in for an insightful discussion on identity, belonging, and the richness of cross-cultural experiences.
