There will be no new episode, but Patreon members stay tuned to
hear about what I'll be doing in my absence.
This past September U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced
the end of an Obama era executive order. That announcement changed
the lives of 800,000 young adults. One of those young adults is
this episode's guest.
Marisol Estrada is a Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipient living in Georgia. On this episode, we chat about her experiences in the South, the process she went through to become DACAmented, what that meant to her and how the Trump administration’s decision to end DACA in March of 2018 will impact the future of those who benefited from the program.
The Who’s that lady (from history)? is Fannie Lou Hamer, an activist from Mississippi.
