Hey folks, this is Kevin. On this week's episode of Risk, you'll hear William Tran.

Put your pinky rings up to the moon. What's you trying to do? Get hyped.

That and more. But first, this episode is about immigrants. If you are an immigrant or a child of

immigrants or, heck, maybe a loved one of an immigrant, pitch us your story. All you need to know is at

risk dash show.com slash submissions.

We'll be right back.

Now here's the show. Oh, oh, oh, oh, ah, oh, ah, uh, uh, uh, oh, uh, oh, uh, oh, uh, oh, uh, uh, uh, uh, Hello, folks, this is RISC, the show where people tell true stories they never thought they dare to share.

I'm Kevin Allison.

This is Admiral Dele Abiodun behind me now, and this is our 750th episode.

I can't believe I'm saying that. And more importantly, we're calling this

week's episode Immigrant Stories number one. Now, both of the stories you're going to hear

today come to us from capital storytelling, a fabulous storytelling organization based in Sacramento.

We love Capital Storytelling so much.

And I have a co-host with me today.

For the episode, it's Diana Medina, a workshop facilitator with Capital Storytelling.

Hello, Diana.

Hi, Kevin.

Thank you so much for having me.

Oh, it's great to have you. Tell me a little bit about what you guys do over there at Capital Storytelling, helping immigrants share their stories. Absolutely. For the last three years, Capital Storytelling has had an initiative around immigrant storytelling. We aim to empower and amplify the voices of immigrants and children of immigrants all over the Sacramento area.

The way we do this is through a series of workshops held throughout the year, where we then are able to recruit our performers for our October live show

that happens on Immigrants Day in partnership with local university, public radio station,

and other community folks in the area.
