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.
Following the conviction of former Honduran coup president Juan Orlando Hernandez in a US court on drug-trafficking charges, the LMC speaks with both Adrienne Pine and Karen Spring about how JOH turned Honduras into a narco-state.

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.
