In recent week, the Republican led anti-CRT movement has extended itself to attack and defund historically black colleges and universities. So on this episode, the LMC speaks with professors Will Guzman and Nolan Cabrera to discuss how these recent attacks parallel the banning of ethnic studies in Arizona during the mid 2000s.
Will Guzman is the Assistant Vice Chancellor of Intl. Programs & Community Engagement @ North Carolina Central University in Durham, NC.
Nolan Cabrera is a Professor of Educational Policy Studies and Practice @ the University of Arizona in Tucson.
Joan Flores-Villalobos, an Assistant Professor of History at the University of Southern California, joins the LMC to discuss her new book, “The Silver Women: How Black Women’s Labor Made the Panama Canal.”
On the episode, the LMC tackles the inconvenient truths of anti-Black racism within the Latino community by spending the hour with Fordham School of Law Professor Tanya Ketari Hernandez. She is also the author of the book, “Racial Innocence: Unmasking Latino Anti-Black Bias and the Struggle for Equality.”
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.
