It's the Brian Larry Show on WNYC. Good morning again, everyone. And now we will do our latest April

segments for this National Poetry Month and Arab American Heritage Month.

And listeners, heads up, it will be Poetry Month open mic.

parent's story. It could be your grandparents' story or earlier ancestors from anywhere in the Arab world.

Tell us your family immigration story to America at 212-433 WNYC, 212-433-9-6-9-2.
