Exploring Immigrant Issues Through Fiction With Orlando Ortega-Medina  
Podcast: Care More Be Better: A Podcast For Sustainable Social Impact and Regeneration
Published On: Wed May 31 2023
Description: In these last few years, immigrant issues have been a huge topic of discussion in the United States. People flee from war-torn countries, immigrants facing discrimination, and banning certain nationalities from entering the country have sparked endless debate. Author Orlando Ortega-Medina wanted to shed light on the challenges he went through as an immigrant himself by writing a fiction novel that reflects his non-fiction story. He joins Corinna Bellizzi to talk about his book The Fitful Sleep of Immigrant, which narrates the trials and tribulations of an immigrant in San Francisco during the late 90s. Orlando talks about his current life in London, the importance of authors seeking professional editing, and the reason he writes about tough subjects. Love the show?
