We turn now to the fight to release Griselda Cruz Lopez, one of several hundred women being held at the T. Don Hutto Detention Center in Taylor, Texas. Griselda has been separated from her child, has not heard from her child in a month, and suffers complications from a skull fracture suffered in the care of Core Civic, which runs the detention center. Joining us is Sofia Casini, an organizer at Grassroots Leadership, fighting to end the abuses at Hutto Detention Center.The far-right candidate Bolsonaro has just surged to victory in Brazil, now putting the future of the Amazon in jeopardy and certainly spelling danger for Black and indigenous Brazilians. Meanwhile, a rash of far-right hate crimes has once again plagued the U.S. What can we expect out of a right-wing dominated Brazil and what can the left do to better prepare itself? For this segment, we speak with Jacqueline and Abdus Luqman, co-hosts of Luqman Nation.
