Sin Fronteras. Dolores Huerta

THURSDAY, MARCH 13

PROGRAM #10713 12:00 PM PT

Sin Fronteras. This is a program of “Sin Fronteras,” a special series to serve audiences in Mexico City and other Mexican state capitals with breaking news and analysis about major developments impacting Latinos in the US.

Guests: Jose Lopez Zamorano, Reporter, Washington, DC; Marco Vinicio Gonzalez, Reporter, New York, NY.

Dolores Huerta. Dolores Huerta, the iconic civil and labor rights leader, inspired audiences at a community event in San Francisco. She comments on the imperative need to fight against misogyny, racism, and homophobia and calls on people to boycott corporations that ended DEI practices.

Guest: Dolores Huerta, Legendary Civil Rights Leader, San Francisco, CA.

The cost of mass deportations. For more than 100 years, immigrants have been key to building this country. An expert has been invited to this program to explain how Latinos help drive the U.S. economy to a level that some people don’t realize. She further states that if Latinos were a country, they would be the fifth largest economy in the world. This data is relevant at a time when the Trump administration has ordered a massive operation designed to round up, detain and deport the undocumented population en masse, which raises such obvious questions as these: How exactly does the current enforcement operation threaten the country’s economy? And at what cost?

Guest: Ana Valdez, President and CEO, Latino Donor Collaborative, Los Angeles, CA.

Women’s History Month. Olga Talamante, the Executive Director Emeritus of the Chicana Latina Foundation, calls on the community to close ranks around resisting the mounting attacks on women’s rights, including voting and reproductive rights and the right to demonstrate and protest.

Guest: Olga Talamante, Executive Director Emeritus, Chicana Latina Foundation, San Francisco, CA.

Women Leaders: Immigrant Rights. On Women’s History Month, leading women advocates talk about their work helping immigrant families overcome fear through Know Your Rights workshops and leading campaigns to fight hate.

Guest: Marielena Hincapié, Former Executive Director, National Immigration Law Center, and Immigration Scholar, Cornell Law School, San Francisco, CA.
