Know Your Rights: Indiscriminate Raids. 

Under pressure from Trump, ICE agents stepped up their operations, arresting more than 50,000 people in July alone, many with no criminal record. In California, 7 out of 10 people detained on immigration charges have no criminal history. What are ICE’s new tactics? Who needs to take precautions? What activities carry risk? What should you do when ICE knocks on your door? What should green card holders and citizens who are wrongly questioned or detained know?

Guests: Nora Zaragoza, Program Manager, Valley Watch Network, Hanford, CA; Alma Rosa Nieto, Immigration Attorney, Los Angeles, CA; Daniela Rodriguez, Reporter at Radio Bilingüe, UC Berkeley Fellow, Fresno, CA; excerpts from recent statements by immigrant Milena Araya in an interview with Desiree Yepez, Radio Bilingüe’s Managing News Producer.
