Following the conviction of former Honduran coup president Juan Orlando Hernandez in a US court on drug-trafficking charges, the LMC speaks with both Adrienne Pine and Karen Spring about how JOH turned Honduras into a narco-state.
Adrienne Pine is an anthropologist & co-coordinator of the Intl Coalition to Stop Genocide in Palestine. Karen Spring is a researcher, host of the Honduras Now podcast, and co-coordinator of the Honduras Solidarity Network (HSN).
The LMC wraps up 2023 with freelance writer Arturo Dominguez to discuss a tumultuous year that included xenophobia, mass shootings, Islamophobia, and anti-LGBTQ legislation. We’ll also discuss how numerous, successful labor strikes gives us hope for a better 2024.
On the last show of 2022, Latino Media Collective host Oscar Fernandez and original founder Norberto Martinez look back on the year that was in the LMC universe as we hit on some of the biggest issues covered on the show.
The Latino Media Collective is a grassroots Latino public-affairs program that airs on Pacifica station WPFW 89.3fm on Fridays @ 1pm EST in Washington DC.
