On this episode, the LMC speaks with Maximillian Alvarez and Clara Longo de Freitas to spotlight Baltimore’s Latino community following the Key Bridge collapse that killed six migrant construction workers.
Maximillian Alvarez is the Editor-in-Chief of the Real News Network in Baltimore, MD.
Clara Longo de Freitas is a community reporter for the Baltimore Banner.
As the militarization of the border in Texas continues to increase under governor Greg Abbott, the LMC spends the hour with Heidi Beirich, the co-founder of the Global Project Against Hate & Extremism, about how continuing militarization has become a magnet for armed hate groups.
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.
