This American Life: Taking Names

The story of a guy who started a list of Iraqis needing to escape their country. Saturday at Noon and Sunday at 7:00 p.m. on NPR 89.1 FM/1550 AM by Colleen Greer

The truly incredible story of a guy named Kirk Johnson who started a list of hundreds of Iraqis who needed to get out of their country. They were getting death threats, and he was their only hope. Only 26 and living in his aunt's basement, he had no idea what to do. How Kirk kind of succeeded spectacularly and failed spectacularly at the same time.
