I rarely watch TYT anymore since they went mainstream 'Trump-hate', but I love this interview from three years ago.
From extremely humble beginnings as a poor farmer in remote southeastern Turkey, Dogan Uygur scrapped and scraped his way through primary school to earn a scholarship to a technical university in Istanbul, then eventually made his way to the United States. Dogan’s inspiring experience reads like a movie - a poor immigrant comes to these shores with little more than a fierce determination to make a life for himself and, through hard work and well-timed assistance from key individuals along the way, seizes the moment when opportunity arises and becomes a living embodiment of the American Dream.
