Immigrantly Helicopters, Justice & Magic Tricks??
What does serving in the U.S. military while challenging its norms mean? In this episode of Immigrantly, Saadia Khan sits down with Lieutenant Julie Roland, an active-duty naval aviator and law school graduate who advocates for systemic change.
Julie takes us behind the scenes of military life, its hierarchies, recruitment strategies, and the challenges of gender equity in a male-dominated space. She also shares her insights on reimagining military recruitment to address sexual assault, the complex role of the U.S. military in global politics, and the nuanced patriotism that comes with service.
Beyond the uniform, Julie is a community advocate and magician (yes, really!). Listen in as she unpacks the intersections of duty, justice, and personal identity.
