WHY WE ARE HERE

This is the second in a series of video interviews with Cowami and Akossiwa Djagli. The couple, originally from Togo, West Africa, tells their story about why they left their homeland to come to Minnesota, and what life is like now for them and their children.

In Part 1, Cowami and Akossiaw Djagli talked about winning an immigration lottery in 2001 and moving to Minnesota. In today’s installment they tell about what they learned on their visit back to their home country of Togo last year.
