My life story used to be about shame and abuse. But I transformed it into one of pride and survival. The opposite of shame is your story on a goddamn billboard in NYC. Thanks Amazon. Happy #AAPIHeritageMonth !

THANK YOU SO MUCH, everyone, for helping us meet our goal! Ali and all of us are so beyond thrilled. He gives everyone a sincere thank you, and we will post updates as we hear them! If you still have it in you to throw in some extra $$ for the other DJs, that'd be a doozy.

I was reminded that Ali's show was called, "Are You Gonna Laugh, or Am I Gonna Make You Laugh?" where if you weren't laughing when you called in, he'd make jokes until you did. But he has seemed so srs lately, and I hope this is the start of him getting his humor back.

When I met my husband Joey on twitter, he intrigued me with his pickup line -- "I see you work on the radio... I used to run a radio station in Afghanistan." I met up with him because I wanted to know more. gofundme.com/f/help-afghan-r… Link here, backstory in thread.

Any money we might raise on top of this will be dispersed among the other DJs! Many of them did arrive knowing some family, so Ali's case is most pressing, but most have kids and everyone would benefit from a little help.

These are men who served our country, who worked against the Taliban, and were punished for it for a very long time. Let's give them a warm American welcome and show them how hospitable we can be. Thank you so much!!🥰
