Oh MY! That profession is attractive!

We need more sign language interpreters in every part of the world. My guest Amaresh Gopalakrishnan speaks to this concerning India. He tells us some of the foundational steps they have made to create awareness of the Deaf community's needs and building up and educating Indian Sign Language interpreters. With 18,000,000 Deaf they have a long way to go to fulfill the need for interpreters.

In this fourth and final installment, Azeez reflects on the chaos he and the Iraqi people faced when the US Forces pulled out of Iraq and whether is was worth it. He also details the two years of purgatory (and danger!) he endured in Iraq as he waited to get his green card, to becoming a US citizen. 

Azeez served as an Iraqi interpreter during Operation Iraqi Freedom during the "Surge" as sectarian strife erupted during the US occupation of Iraq after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein and the Baath party.

In Episode 3, you'll hear what it was like for Azeez to be imbedded as an interpreter with a MiTT (e.g., Military Transition Team) whose role was to help transition Iraq from an occupied country to one led by a newly minted Iraqi government...and it did not go smoothly.

Azeez served as an Iraqi interpreter during Operation Iraqi Freedom during the "Surge" as sectarian strife erupted during the US occupation of Iraq after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein and the Baath party.

In this episode, you'll hear Azeez talk about the tragedy his family endured due to sectarian violence and this path to becoming an interpreter for the US Armed forces. 

Azeez served as an Iraqi interpreter during Operation Iraqi Freedom during the "Surge" as sectarian strife erupted during the US occupation of Iraq after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein and the Baath party.

In this episode, Azeez shares what it was like growing up in southern Iraq as the war with Iran ended and a new war with the US -led coalition began, and the impact it had on him and his family.

Subscriber-only episode

Azeez volunteered to assist the US Armed forces in Iraq as an interpreter during Operation Iraqi Freedom and the "Surge", when sectarian strife left Iraq in chaos.  In this series, Azeez shares his account of having his father murdered by members of a local militia which led to Azeez becoming an interpreter where he was seen as a traitor...all while being exposed to the dangers affiliated with working on the front lines with the US Armed forces in what amounted to a civil war.
This is a timely conversation as recently released movies (i.e. "The Covenant" and "Interpreters Wanted") illustrate the bond interpreters had with their US-led teams and the fate of many of them after the US Armed forces left.

A wild Rapid Fire Question Challenge appears! Season 3's 1st RFQC actually is a throwback to a couple Season 1 guests whose rapid fires never got released. The first challenger is Jennifer O'Donnell, translator & localizer who joined us for Season 1 Episode 15 called "Careers in Japanese: Translation & Localization". In that episode, we explored how to leverage Japanese language study into a career in translation and a peek behind the industry's curtain. After Round 1 finished, Megan DeVille stepped up onto the RFQ Challenge stage. Megan was our guest on Season 1 Episode 17 entitled "Accepted for JET Program... Now What?!". Megan recalls her JET Program application process, as well as talks about her experiences mentoring (and interviewing) prospective JET applicants. A fun mini-episode to hold us over until next week's episode on food-based travel, featuring an awesome conversation with Shinichi of the popular YouTube channel, TabiEats!

Author and translator Jhumpa Lahiri grew up in what she has called “a linguistic exile.” Born in London to Bengali immigrants who moved to the United States when she was 3, Lahiri experienced a profound sense of alienation as a child and a longing for somewhere that felt like home. Then, during a 1994 trip to Florence, Italy, she fell in love with the Italian language, which she came to see as a gateway to exploring her life and identity further—or to, in other words, get beyond any imposed self. For the last decade, she has written almost exclusively in Italian, and has translated most of her Italian writing into English herself. A visceral energy rises up from her translated sentences, reflective of the strong emotional tenor she feels when engaging with the Italian language. 

Some warned Lahiri against her decision to embrace Italian, practically considering it career suicide. But she remained unmoved. Despite her many triumphs until that point—including winning the 2000 Pulitzer Prize in fiction for her debut short story collection, Interpreter of Maladies (1999), and having her popular novel The Namesake (2003) turned into a Hollywood film—the pivot brought about a new flood of creativity. Since 2015, Lahiri has produced more books than there have been years, including her most recent, Translating Myself and Others (Princeton University Press), which was published in May. Her first book of Italian short stories, Racconti Italiani, or Roman Stories, will debut in the fall.

On this episode, Lahiri speaks with Spencer about translation as a political act, the vocabulary of architecture, and language as a portal to understanding one’s place in the world.
