For graduation speaker Mohammad Samra, Commencement is the culmination of a long and difficult journey. 

He’s spent many late nights churning through homework in his parent’s unfinished basement. He’s worked long hours loading packages for UPS. He’s dealt with loss, self-doubt and the challenges of the pandemic.

And on Graduation Day, we get to celebrate him and his accomplishments.

In this episode, Mohammad and I talk about his outstanding journalism, overcoming resistance and more. Please enjoy.
