On the two year anniversary of the Afghan refugee evacuation with the fall of Afghanistan, Global Shout has been featured in a short documentary in the Washington Post , discussing our efforts to help settle refugees, and featuring our Executive Director Ali Karim, COO Farid Noori, and his activist uncle, Mohibullah Noori, as we discuss the latter's struggles and uncertain asylum status. Over 19,000 Afghan refugee asylum cases are still pending today, as the Afghan Adjustment Act proposed legislation to expedite their processing has still not been passed by congress, preventing the refugees from having a secure home in the United States and reuniting with the loved ones they left behind in the danger of Taliban-led Afghanistan.
