Why I’m Launching The A-Force Podcast Today (2026 US Visa Ban) | A-Force Podcast | Aneta Felix | #1

#USVisaBan #USVisaNigeria2026 #TheAForcePodcast

I’m launching The A-FORCE PODCAST.

Today is January 1, 2026. As Presidential Proclamation 10998 takes effect, partially suspending B, F, M, and J visas for 39 countries, including my home, Nigeria, the conversation around the global workforce has never been more urgent.

I’m Aneta Felix, a journalist who made the leap from the BBC and Channels TV to UC Berkeley and CNN. I know what it’s like to leave everything behind to start again.

I created The A-Force Podcast to document the grit, resilience, and billion-dollar economic impact of immigrants who are building the future of America.

In this launch episode, we discuss:

The 2026 Visa Update and what the partial suspension means for Nigerians; my personal journey of reinvention from Nigeria to California; why we must document the impact of those who came before us; and why we must build world-class opportunities on our own soil.

NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW: I sit down with a U.S. Foreign Policy Strategist to discuss the impact of the 2025 USAID shut down in Nigeria.
