In this episode, we discuss the connection between the climate justice movement and the immigration justice movement. As a border community, we are first-hand witnesses of the cruelty of the United States immigration policies. Our community sees kids separated from their mothers and locked in cages, children die under the imprisonment of ICE, the brutality of the Remain in Mexico Policy, and other horrors.
How connected is the immigration crisis to the issue of climate change? What is the relationship between both movements and how can both movements work in solidarity?
To discuss this topic, we have Destiny Garcia on the show. She is an organizer with the Detained Migrant Solidarity Committee and Fronterizx Fianza Fund. We talk about immigrant abolition, climate refugees, climate reparations and more.
