In the latest installment of the Undocumented & LGBTQ series, the LMC spends the hour with Malú Machuca Rose to discuss the unique challenges of Peru’s LGBTQ community and how the country’s civil war from generations ago still hinder the struggle for equal rights.
Malú Machuca Rose is a PhD Candidate in Performance Studies at Northwestern University.
As the country continues to see mass arrests of migrants in courtrooms and in viral videos, the LMC spends the hour with Ernesto Castaneda from the Immigration Lab and the Center for Latino American and Latino Studies at American University to discuss migrant realities vs the myths that lead to racist, xenophobic government policies.
Ernesto Castaneda is also the author of, “Challenging Common Misperceptions.”
Following a racist, xenophobic ad by the US Department of Homeland Security that ran on Mexico’s airwaves last April, freelance writer Kurt Hackbarth breaks down Mexico’s corporate media structure and how this controversy may lead to reforms in the country’s telecommunications laws.
Kurt Hackbarth is also the host of the Sobrania Podcast.
