Demba Baldeh on Life in The Gambia, the 1994 Coup & Becoming an Immigrant in the U.S. | Ep.1

In Episode One of this two-part live conversation, Demba Baldeh reflects on his early life in The Gambia, his education and first work experiences, and the political climate that shaped his generation. The discussion touches on his assessment of the PPP era, the events surrounding the 1994 military takeover, and how early public optimism later gave way to the realities of military rule. Demba also speaks about his decision to migrate to the United States in 1995, the challenges of starting over as a new immigrant, and his early steps toward education, work, and stability in a new country. This is a live, unedited conversation that sets the foundation for a broader discussion on migration, governance, resilience, and immigrant success.
