Latinos in Conservative Stronghold.

California voters passed Proposition 57, a criminal justice reform that allows early release of thousands of inmates and gives judges, not DAs, the authority to decide if juveniles can be tried as adults. Are all areas in the state ready to help inmates to reenter in the community? And after the killing of an elderly mentally-ill Latino patient, California’s Attorney General launched a civil rights violations investigation into police agencies in Bakersfield and Kern County, the area whose cops are leading the country in fatal police shootings. And an influential congressman from the San Joaquin Valley wants to repeal Obamacare. What would be the impact on his constituents? Veteran leaders discuss these and other topics.

Guests: Dolores Huerta, President, Dolores Huerta Foundation, Bakersfield, CA; Dr. Ray Gonzales, Former State Assemblyman, Bakersfield, CA; Dr. Gonzalo Santos, Professor of Sociology, CSU Bakersfield, Bakersfield, CA.
