Ep. 11: The Things that Tear Us Apart

In the past few weeks Immigration policy has been ravaging our communities and causing unnecessary trauma for thousands of refugees. In this episode Kelly and Janeane discuss the "Zero Tolerance Policy" and the effects on and assumptions made about those who cross the border against American federal law. From its beginnings in the Obama Administration to the demonization and degradation narrative helmed by the Trump Administration, we delve into the ways we need to refocus the narrative on human rights, compassion, and activism for people fleeing real horrors in Central America. This is a tough episode, so grab a couple more warm conchas and some té for post episode or to stress munch while listening.
