Media portrayals of immigrants can perpetuate stereotypes and misinformation, influencing Americans' perceptions and attitudes toward immigrants. Negative stereotypes may contribute to fear, prejudice, and discrimination, making it difficult to foster empathy and understanding. That’s why bringing in a quarterly segment produced by the Welcoming Center and hosted by its CEO Anuj Gupta.

Anuj’s first guests are Yu Shan Chou who along with Karen Cervera started “Let’s Talk Philly” which offers conversation circles in person and virtually for immigrants to practice English with one another and build social connections.
