"It's great to have the studio back, even better and nicer and more convenient for our listeners, " said Hussien Mohamed, founder and executive director of Sagal Radio (The Voice of New Americans) on AM 1420, who has lived in Atlanta since 1986. The station is in a plain-looking set of office buildings in Clarkston, a city that over the years has seen unparalleled change as more refugees and immigrants moved to the area.

Listeners have become neighbors, and Mohamed said it's not unusual to have people casually drop by the second-floor studio to meet the voices behind the mic.

Sagal Radio is a community-based nonprofit that broadcasts radio programs every Friday, Saturday and Sunday in six different languages --- English, Somali, Amharic, Karen, Bhutanese/Nepali and Swahili.
