340. "Y'all supposed to be choking Mexicans!" Joan Baez was right about America

from The UPstander's Podcast with Dr. Omekongo · host Dr. Omekongo Dibinga

In a video that has gone viral, a man is heard screaming at ICE agents that they shouldn't be choking the Black man they are recording but they are supposed to only be going after Mexicans. This is the reason #trump is thriving. Divide and conquer. ICE agents should be choking NO ONE! This moment had me thinking about what legendary singer and activist  @JoanBaezOfficial  said to Nicolle Wallace about America today vs. the Civil Rights Movement. She said there is no "glue" to hold people together in the fight we are in and that really has to change if we are going to win the fight for this democratic experiment to continue.
