In this important episode, Samara unpacks the ongoing immigration raids in Los Angeles and their devastating impact on families across the region. She highlights how social media has become a vital tool for real-time updates and community organizing, especially as traditional media continues to offer biased portrayals that obscure the full truth of what is really happening in LA.
From peaceful protests to community members in San Diego stepping up to protect local businesses, Samara spotlights acts of solidarity in the face of fear. She calls out the racial profiling tactics used by ICE agents and raises urgent concerns about children being separated from their families. With the diverse immigrant community forming the heart of Los Angeles, Samara urges all of us to take action—and challenges all of us to find ways to stand together, protest peacefully, and preserve the culture and humanity of those being targeted.
