Episode 6: State Violence and Queer/Trans Migration
from Queer and Trans Latinidad Hosted by CHI 161: Prof. Redwine
Hello, welcome to our podcast episode for CHI161 taught by Professor Joshua Redwine. In this episode Sabrina, Isabel, Estefanía, and María discuss issues of state violence and migration and how that specifically affects trans and queer Latinx/e immigrants. We touch on topics of asylum seeking, detention centers across the United States, and the inhumane treatment people receive within these centers. We hope our conversation gives y’all a lot to think about and consider looking further into it.
