Ep. 5: Alex Archuleta

Chat with Colorado Springs community leader Alex Archuleta, one of six people arrested by the Colorado Springs Police Department for participating in the Housing Rights March at the center of Armendariz & Chinook Center v. City of Colorado Springs, et al., 2023. Join Jax on her journey as the lead plaintiff of the first Civil Rights case in U.S. history (Armendariz v. City of Colorado Springs) to provide undeniable evidence that federal and local law enforcement unconstitutionally spied on Black Lives Matter social justice protestors for their political speech & actions. Jax, aka Jacqueline Armendariz Unzueta, also invites other Colorado Springs, CO community voices to discuss the case and relevant local current events because knowledge is power & cultura cura.
