The Crackdown in LA: What the Media Didn’t Tell You

In this powerful episode of The Disinfo Detox, historian and organizer Caroline Luce joins Nolan Higdon to unpack the disturbing reality behind recent ICE raids on LA garment workers, the long history of surveillance in labor movements, and how local communities are fighting back. We break through the media silence to spotlight what's really happening on the ground—and how you can help.

Caroline shares deep historical context on how immigrant workers, labor organizers, and community advocates have long been targeted under the guise of "public safety." We also expose how law enforcement and media spin are weaponized to suppress working-class solidarity.
