KPFK Conversation Piece Kidnapping in LA and the Protests Against It
from Conversation Piece w/ Angela Birdsong · host MTAS Productions
What it is! Friday,June 6, 2025, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents invaded Los Angeles. They used administrative civil warrants to arrest students, hotel workers, cooks, landscapers, and construction workers. Invading schools and workplaces demanding that any Angeleno who wasn’t sufficiently Caucasian produce their papers. Taking them away in unmarked vans, without judicial process. Of course, the people of LA wouldn't stand for this, and mass protests flooded out downtown Los Angeles. The news, federal government, and even some members of the city council lied about these peaceful protests being riots, but the video shows that the only ones rioting were the LAPD. Today we are going to speak to a community member who was there all week, and later we will be joined by Matyos Kidane to explain the strategy behind these lies...Welcome to Conversation Piece.
