Joining us today for a midseason catch up is Ruby from Mosaic 1781, a fellow ACFC supporters group and close ally. We share an update from our Palestine Solidarity Committee, an away game story that always brings us joy, and most importantly, Ruby shares the awful experience her group had at BMO stadium at our recent game. In yet another attempt to censor La Fortaleza, one specific security personnel aggressively bullied an entire section and even shoved a supporter while trying to take down signs that were allowed in and not communicated as problematic in the stands ahead of the game. BMO has not taken any accountability thus far.Player of the Pod is Sydney Leroux!LA Businesses of the Pod are Homeboy Industries & Brown IssuesPurchase your ticket from Salvies Who Lunch ticket pack for the Salvadorian Heritage game here.
