Imagine arriving in New York, seeing tall buildings, experiencing everything wonderful that you pictured America to be based on what you saw on TV. The houses, the cars, the stores. Only to feel captive in the country of freedom. This is the story of many immigrant women who are brought to this country with the promise of a better life but find themselves in a story much different than they pictured. Join us on this episode with Veronica Aguirre Davis in her story of recognizing her right to be in this country and finding her power and freedom again!
