Description

Fawziya Al-Ramahi is a 65-year-old 1st Generation immigrant. Fawziya detailed her immigration from Kuwait to the United States, including her original to only visit her siblings in the Milwaukee area. However, Sadam Hussein’s rise to power and Kuwait’s collapse motivated her to stay and greatly affected her ultimate decision to remain in the States. Fawziya found that her family life and raising her children in the United States was particularly successful because she remained a firm believer in Islam. She explained how she has been able to continue to practice her religion, especially in the United States. This interview has been translated from Arabic to English.
