Feet in 2 Worlds is a vital source of news, information and opinion about immigrants and immigration online and on public radio.

WHO WE ARE & WHAT WE DO

Feet in 2 Worlds assists and empowers journalists who are immigrants to bring their work to a large and diverse audience on public radio and the web.

Feet in 2 Worlds reporters shine a light on stories that are unknown or underreported outside of immigrant communities - allowing non-immigrant audiences to better understand the experiences of today’s immigrants.

You may have heard our reporters on public radio programs including PRI’s The World, Studio 360, and The Takeaway, American Public Media’s Marketplace and NPR’s Latino USA, and on WNYC, New York Public Radio.

The Fi2W website (http://news.feetintwoworlds.org/), is a daily source of stories about immigrant communities and the national debate over immigration policy. From the DREAM Act to individual state laws focused on immigrants, Fi2W reporters provide timely reporting and unique insights that can only come from journalists who are themselves immigrants.

Our Food in 2 Worlds podcast series brings listeners into immigrant kitchens, restaurants and food stores to explore how food connects immigrants to both their native country and their new home in the U.S.

Feet in Two Worlds journalists represent a wide range of immigrant communities including African, Arab, Bosnian, Chinese, Filipino, Haitian, Indian, Irish, Latino, Pakistani and Polish immigrants.

Feet in 2 Worlds is a project of the Center for New York City Affairs at The New School.

    My stories about Latino immigrants were produced by the mainstream media thanks to Fi2W. Together we broke a story about how Homeland Security was visiting clean-up sites in Louisiana looking for undocumented workers. Fi2W is a vital source of fresh news on a huge segment of the population.

    With millions of recent immigrants in the US, these stories are OUR stories. Feet in 2 Worlds is a bridge between worlds that is desperately needed in media.

    Fi2W has the potential to grow into the one stop station for everything migration related in NYC and the US; from food to art, to politics and the economy. Keep an eye on them and you will see! http://news.feetintwoworlds.org

    From WNYC, listen to a history of Feet in 2 Worlds: The late Pullitzer Prize winning author Frank McCourt (Angela's Ashes) truly had his feet in two worlds. Hence, it was fitting that he provided his words –and his unmistakable Irish accent– for the narration of the radio documentary that gave birth to the Feet in 2 Worlds project, in 2005. http://www.wnyc.org/articles/wnyc-news/2005/may/05/feet-in-two-worlds/
