"Our Stories Are Medicine" — Diane Guerrero & Allies Confront America's Deportation Machine

from The Raid · host John Carlos Frey, Diane Guerrero, Arianna Rosales, Grisel Ruiz, Monica De La Cruz Lopez

Four powerful Latinas — actress and activist Diane Guerrero, communications strategist Arianna Rosales, immigration attorney Grisel Ruiz, and liberation-psychology therapist Monica de la Cruz Lopez — come together as powerful unified voice, referring to themselves as, "We Ride at Dawn". They join forces at this critical time to confront the human cost of America's mass deportation machine.  In this raw and moving conversation, they share personal stories of family separation, undocumented life, immigration detention, and systemic dehumanization — and make the case that storytelling is not a retreat from crisis, but its deepest form of resistance. The group explores how shame silences immigrant communities, why psychology has historically been weaponized against the people it claims to help, and how ancestral healing, community organizing, and radical self-love can build the infrastructure for lasting change.  https://theraidpodcast.org/ Disclaimer: The statements and opinions expressed by the host or participants on this program are solely their own and do not necessarily represent those of the distributor of the program and any person or entity affiliated with said distributor ("distributor's affiliates").  The distributor and distributor's affiliates are not responsible for, and shall not be liable for, the statements and opinions expressed by the host or participants, or for any content that appears on the program.    Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
