  • POLAND: The Immigrant Story You're Not Hearing
    Sep 26 2025

    If you’re a creator or an entrepreneur — I made something for you: https://storytelling-mastery.com/start- ABOUT THIS EPISODE: Edward Said's groundbreaking book 'Orientalism' reveals how the West created a distorted image of 'the East' to justify power. But what if this same mechanism is at play today, right here in Poland, shaping how we talk about immigrants? In this deep dive, we explore how narratives about 'the Other' impact lives in Poland, drawing parallels between Said's historical analysis and contemporary discussions. 📕 Get the book here: https://amzn.eu/d/3GEgkJIℹ️ CONNECT WITH US:👉 https://www.instagram.com/kamaljahid👉 https://www.instagram.com/warsaw_confidential🎧 LISTEN TO THE SHOW:🟢 SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/1pmZ4zWzryf5QMSC88sxs2⚪️ APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-kamal-jahid-show/id1684081392ℹ️ DisclaimerThe views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of Warsaw Confidential.

  • Is POLAND Welcoming to All Immigrants—or Just Some?
    Sep 14 2025

    If you’re a creator or an entrepreneur — I made something for you: https://storytelling-mastery.com/start


    - ABOUT THIS EPISODE:


    Poland is often described as one of the most welcoming countries in Europe. But is that true for **all** immigrants?


    In this solo episode of *Warsaw Confidential*, I dive deep into my own experiences of living in Poland for over a decade, and the stories I’ve collected from dozens of immigrants on the podcast.


    Some are welcomed like family. Others are told to “go back to your country.” The reality is more complex: Ukrainians are embraced as neighbors, while Africans, Middle Easterners, and Asians often face suspicion and stereotypes.


    So what does true welcoming look like? And can Poland get there?


    This video explores the beauty and the challenges of integration: the kindness, the criticism, the facts about demographics and the economy, and the cultural fears that shape the debate.
