As an Ethiopian-American he is involved in many activities to benefit the newly arrived immigrants.His growing issues lately became the shame he feels as an Ethiopian-American when he gets a call to assess a domestic violence call at his job.He encounters nine out of ten domestic violence calls happening in Alexandria , Virginia happen to be commited by Ethiopian-American men against Ethiopian-American women.Respectable and hard working Ethiopian-Americans end up going to jail.The alarming rate of this happening should be an issue that need to be resolved as a community he says.I say let us practice couple councilation.

We are not very easy people to work with beacouse of the mental bagage we came with when we left home. Do not give up on us. Keep pushing one day we will realize that you are the true heroes,the fact that you try to organize our people means a lot to us who have a pleasure meeting and talking to you.
