Ep 129 UNFILTERED A Seattle Anti-Violence Advocate, Fentanyl, and a Federal Indictment

Send us Fan MailThe UNFILTERED trio of Debora Juarez, Omari Salisbury and Enrique Cerna discuss the shocking indictment earlier this month of a Seattle anti-violence advocate and her family members for allegedly being a part of a multi-state fentanyl drug trafficking organization. Among the 14 people indicted, Marty Jackson, the executive director of the SE Network Safety Net, a community group that is part of the Boys & Girls Clubs of King County. The U.S. Attorney’s Office says the indictments are linked to fentanyl that killed a member of the Lummi Nation in September 2023. Fentanyl has had a disproportionate impact on Indigenous people, and the Native American and Alaska Native populations have the highest drug overdose death rates nationally.UNFILTERED is a production of the Chino Y Chicano Podcast and Converge Media. Read: https://southseattleemerald.org/voices/2025/07/22/masked-men-are-detaining-people-when-will-washingtons-leaders-protect-usRead: https://nieman.harvard.edu/mark-trahant-wins-the-2025-i-f-stone-medal-for-journalistic-independence/Read: https://www.24thstreet.org/blog/2025/1/17/letting-goRead:https://www.amazon.com/Harbingers-January-Charlottesville-American-Democracy/dp/1586424017Read: https://www.mapresearch.org/2024-dei-report "Dismantling DEI: A Coordinated Attack on American Values"https://www.forbes.com/sites/conormurray/2025/01/07/these-companies-have-rolled-back-dei-policies-mcdonalds-is-latest-to-abandon-diversity-standards/https://www.chronicle.com/package/the-assault-on-dei  Chronicle of Higher Education https://www.courts.wa.gov/appellate_trial_courts/supreme/bios/?fa=scbios.display_file&fileID=gonzalezRead: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/obituaries/chinatown-international-district-activist-matt-chan-dead-at-71/Hear Rick Shenkman on the BBC Radio Program Sideways:https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001xdg0Read: https://www.thedailybeast.com/i-stuck-with-nixon-heres-why-science-said-i-did-itRead: https://www.washcog.org/in-the-news/your-right-to-knowRead: https://www.seattletimes.com/opinion/the-legislatures-sunshine-committee-has-fallen-into-darkness/Read: https://www.cascadiadaily.com/2024/feb/2...
