An email from Levi Bridges on his Migrating to Maine article series

Hello Friends,

I’m posting this entry to let you know that I published an article today in the Bangor Daily News. The story is the first of what will become a series about immigrants living in Maine.

My goal in trying to write and publish this new column is to give immigrants living in our state a place to tell their stories, in their own words, in a major media outlet distributed all over the state. I hope to show readers the various reasons why immigrants arrive in our state, who they are, and how they’ve integrated into our communities. Ultimately, I want to use writing to help Mainers throughout our state better understand the reality of immigrants lives and how their presence here enriches our state.

The first column is about a cello player from the South American country of Bolivia. It can be read at the following link:

If you have any ideas for immigrant stories you want to see me cover, please don’t hesitate to email me. Additionally, if you have any feedback for how I can improve these stories, please fire away. And if you like what I’m doing, don’t hesitate to let the newspaper know either.

Thanks for your interest,

Levi Bridges
