Feid-ing in: Colombia, Latin America are riding a wave of protests — and protest music

For over a decade, from 2013 to 2023, the Latin America Report from WLRN News served as an essential weekly feature, digging into the profound connections between South Florida and the regions to its south. This podcast understood that the politics, economies, and cultural currents of Latin America and the Caribbean are not distant headlines but immediate local realities for many. Each episode explored how events in one place reverberated in the other, creating a nuanced portrait of a deeply interconnected hemisphere. You’ll hear award-winning journalism that went beyond surface-level analysis, including deeply reported series like the six-part Migration Maze, which critically assessed U.S. policies aiming to address immigration within Central American nations themselves. The reporting consistently provided context to complex stories, offering clarity on how policy decisions, social movements, and artistic expressions shape lives across borders. Tuning into this podcast means engaging with the work of journalists committed to telling these intertwined stories with depth and integrity, capturing a dynamic decade of change and continuity throughout the Americas.
