“New Immigrant and Refugee Visions”
CSFilm Shorts by Qin Li, Mubarak Muwongo Nsamba, & Mohammed Arifuzzaman
& CSFilm Director Michael Sheridan
• Qin Li emigrated from China in 2015, Qin is a scholar-activist focused on women’s empowerment. She began her research on women in rural China. Now she works with women and immigrants from all over the world as a volunteer at Women Encouraging Empowerment in Revere.
• Mubarak Muwonge Nsamba emigrated from Uganda in 2017, Mubarak studied forestry in Uganda, but worked in IT, website design and digital film making. His wife, Zaamu, studied Library Sciences and worked as an academic librarian. They applied for and won the Diversity Green Card lottery, which allowed them to come with their four young children to the US.
• Mohammad Arifuzzaman emigrated from Bangladesh in 2015, Mohammad is a software engineer with interests in music, theater and photography. He demonstrated incredible determination throughout the NIRV film making process – filming all of one story only to have the family grow fearful about participating. His story about Mohammad Anwar is particularly relevant as so many Rohingya refugees have sought refuge in Bangladesh, his country of origin.
