Outrage Over Charlottesville.
After the violent attacks by right wing and white supremacist militants that left three dead and many injured in Charlottesville, the public furor is growing over the acts of terror by emboldened hate groups and the sympathy they are getting from President Trump. A Latino business leader is facing growing criticism for his decision to remain on Trump’s Diversity Council. And amid calls for his firing, the White House top strategist and self-proclaimed white nationalist Steve Bannon is out. The impact of his ouster on Trump’s agenda, the racist roots of anti-immigrant rhetoric, and the rise in hate crimes after Trump’s election, and other news are discussed in this edition.
Guests: Gonzalo Javier Ferrer, National Chairman, Republican National Hispanic Assembly, San Francisco, CA; Juan Cartagena, President and General Counsel, LatinoJustice – PRLDEF, New York, NY.
