We have two guests on the podcast this week! Homero López is the legal director at Immigration Services and Legal Advocacy (ISLA) in Louisiana. ISLA is the primary legal services provider for detention centers across Louisiana. We also have Mary Yanik. Mary is the director of the Tulane Immigrant Rights Clinic. She specializes in assisting immigrant workers including victims of labor trafficking and in defending the constitutional rights of immigrants.
Homero and Mary join new host Omar Gallaga to discuss the Biden administration’s supposed consideration of reinstating detaining of migrant families, the current conditions of detention centers, and the treatment of said detainees.
