LMC favorite Jorge Cuellar returns to the show to discuss La Matanza in 1932, one of the worse massacres on indigenous people in Latin America, and why it still shapes the socioeconomic inequality in El Salvador
Jorge Cuellar is an Assistant Professor of Latin American, Latino & Caribbean Studies @ Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire.
The LMC welcomes back freelance writer and playwright Kurt Hackbarth to discuss the importance of Mexico’s first female president, Claudia Sheinbaum, and the challenges she faces from climate change to right-wing media attacks from the US.
Kurt Hackbarth is also the cofounder of the independent media project “MexElects” and the co-host of the new podcast, “Soberanía.”
Independent writer and researcher Nyki Duda returns to speak with the LMC to break down how a recent series of anti-immigrant rhetoric serves as a microcosm to the rising tide of global fascism both in the US and beyond.
