Mississippi Rising

Author: INOMZU October 15, 2021 Duration: 59:01
August 7, 2019 forever changed the lives of many immigrants in Mississippi. Almost 700 people were taken by ICE that day in the largest single state immigration raid in the country.

Latino USA continues its reporting in Mississippi and heads back to the state to follow-up with some of the people we met in last year’s episode, After the Mississippi Raids, to see what’s changed and what hasn’t in their lives and their communities.

We also dive into the racial history behind the chicken processing business in the South and the vicious cycle of an industry that continues to exploit the most vulnerable.

Tune into Latino USA for a sound-rich journey into the heart of diverse communities. This long-running podcast, presented by INOMZU, moves beyond headlines to share intimate stories and nuanced conversations that define the contemporary Latino experience. Each episode feels like a thoughtful conversation, weaving together personal narratives with broader cultural analysis. You’ll hear from artists, activists, everyday people, and thinkers exploring how identity is lived at the intersection of tradition and innovation. The discussions naturally delve into how social movements, political shifts, and artistic expressions are shaping not only Latino lives but the entire fabric of the nation. It’s a vital listen for anyone interested in the dynamic forces of society and culture, presented with depth and authenticity. Through its careful storytelling, this podcast provides a unique auditory lens on the evolving ideas and shared realities that connect past, present, and future.
