What happens next for human rights in Colombia after Gustavo Petro? The LMC looks for answers by spending the hour with human rights activist Nestor Andres Moreno Rios to discuss the new challenges ahead in the face of new right-wing president Abelardo de la Espriella.
Interpretation for this interview was conducted by Charlie Roberts from the Colombia Human Rights Network.
Abayomi Azikiwe, the editor of the Pan-African News Wire, joins the LMC to discuss grassroots mobilization in Detroit against ICE and the intersection between immigrant rights and the Motown’s rich civil rights history.
As the Supreme Court upholds the 14th amendment and birthright citizenship, the LMC speaks with Nolan Cabrera, professor of Educational Policy Studies and Practice at the University of Arizona, to discuss how racism is informing the decisions in the Supreme Court that negatively affect the rights of Black and Brown citizens.
