Building A Home

The Uplift with Dabney Brice

Currently in the United States, there are over 800,000 people who are under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. These ‘dreamers’ were brought into the country as children from all over the world and DACA allows them to work and study here without fear of retaliation and deportation. Now we hear so many varying views on the program, but what is it like being a Dreamer? Today, we have current Lehigh senior and DACA recipient, Julius Wibisono to share his experiences. We talk about what support DACA has given him, his hopes for the future, and what ‘home’ means to him.

Episode Song Inspiration: “To Build a Home” by The Cinematic Orchestra
