Demonstrations, Deportations, and Downtown LA"

Gustavo Arellano is a longtime Los Angeles Times columnist and chronicler of the Latino community. In my recent California Sun podcast he brings his deeply personal perspective to the immigration crackdown unfolding in Los Angeles. He shares observations from the epicenter of protests. Born to a Mexican father who snuck across the border as a teenager, Arellano’s voice carries both the weight of historical context and the urgency of someone who sees his community under siege.This post is FREE for everyone.
