#19 Why Eritreans in Tech Summit Was a Success

Tune into Episode #19 of That Second Gen Life with Semhar, covering the recent conference I went to in Washington, D.C., the Eritreans in Tech Summit. In it, I share what I saw, learned and really walked away with - and how we can take that energy into action. And yes, as a member of the Eritrean diaspora, I have to say, it was really nice to have this space created and in such a powerful way. So check it out - whether you’re Eritrean or not - I want you to give it a listen. This is definitely a blueprint to make a diaspora event a success, build community, and leave people wanting more. If you attended the Eritreans in Tech Summit, what did you think? Drop us a note and let us know! This is a public episode.

#23: What I Saw In My Minnesota: It's Still Intense & Not Over

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit semhar.substack.com [https://semhar.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_7] In this episode of That Second-Gen Life, Semhar is back from an extended personal visit to Minnesota with a heavy, firsthand look at what’s actually happening on the ground. Forget what you’re seeing in the headlines. Semhar describes a community living under a "state of siege," where neighborhood streets have turned into a practice run for authoritarian force. From unlabeled SUVs staking out playgrounds to the incredible bravery of neighbors in green vests protecting local kids, this is a raw conversation about the fear, the resilience, and why what's happening in the North Star State is a wake-up call for the rest of the country. You won't want to miss this one. It’s a deep dive into how we show up for each other when things get real.

#22: Why Diasporas (And Everyone Else) Need To Know and Understand Their Rights

Hi everyone, I’m coming to you today with a bit of a heavy heart. This wasn’t a planned episode, but sometimes life—and the headlines—don’t wait for a production schedule. If you’ve been watching what’s happening in Minnesota lately, especially within the Somali diaspora and the broader immigrant community, you know it’s been a tumultuous couple of weeks. Between the increased targeting, the presence of ICE, and the fear rippling through our neighborhoods, it’s felt… a lot. That Second-Gen Life with Semhar is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. I’ve been sitting here reflecting on the stories we carry as second-gen kids. Most of us are here because someone in our family took a massive, often dangerous risk to give us a life where we’re supposed to feel “safe.” But as we’re seeing right now, safety isn’t always a given—sometimes it has to be defended with knowledge. So tune in and listen to what you can do from where you are - to prepare, protect and support each other. I gathered resources—specifically scripts and “Red Cards” translated into various African diaspora languages including Tigrinia, Amharic, Somali, Afaan Oromo, Fulani, Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba, Swahili, Arabic and more —because I want us to be prepared, informed and empowered. Let’s keep looking out for one another, and stay safe and be kind to yourselves. Love always, Semhar This is a public episode.
