As a new Trump administration sets its sights on ending DEI and CRT, the LMC spends the hour with Nolan Cabrera, a professor of Educational Policy Studies and Practice @ the University of Arizona in Tucson, to revisit Arizona’s ethnic studies ban of the mid-2000s and how it remains relevant today.
Nolan Cabrera is also the author of, “Banned: The Fight for Mexican American Studies in the Streets and in the Courts.”
The LMC begins 2025 by discussing what lies ahead with a second Trump administration and his horrendous mass deportation plan by speaking with freelance journalist Arturo Dominguez on the profit motives behind it all.
With the dark shadow of a second Trump administration on the horizon, the LMC spends the hour with Karma Chavez to discuss the whirlwind of anti-LGBTQ legislation that will impact public health, education, workplace discrimination, even family separation.
Karma Chavez is an Associate Professor at the University of Texas at Austin and author of Queer Migration Politics: Activist Rhetoric and Coalitional Possibilities.
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.
