As the country continues to see mass arrests of migrants in courtrooms and in viral videos, the LMC spends the hour with Ernesto Castaneda from the Immigration Lab and the Center for Latino American and Latino Studies at American University to discuss migrant realities vs the myths that lead to racist, xenophobic government policies.
Ernesto Castaneda is also the author of, “Challenging Common Misperceptions.”
Military executions. Police snipers. Environmental racism. On this episode, the LMC speaks with freelance writer Claudia O’Brien Moscoso and Arturo Ramirez, a professor of public policy at the Catholic University of Santiago, Guayaquil in Ecuador, on the challenges faced by Afro-Ecuadorians under the authoritarian presidency of Daniel Noboa.
James Early, the former Smithsonian Institution Assistant Secretary for Education and Public Service, joins the LMC to discuss the Trump administration’s attempts to rewrite history by taking over the Smithsonian Institute, the Kennedy Center, and the defunding of public libraries.
