Latino USA

What started decades ago at the U.S.-Mexico border didn’t stay there.
Journalist, author, and professor Jean Guerrero speaks with Maria Hinojosa and argues that communities on the southern border were a “testing ground” for the increased immigration enforcement that we’re seeing play out across U.S. cities. Jean also makes the case that Honduras may be the next laboratory for something called “startup cities” which could be replicated here.

After the longest State of the Union address in U.S. history this past Tuesday, we go beyond the lies and omissions to assess where our country stands. A sobering look at what President Trump has built, and dismantled, during his second term in office. We analyze plans to build an economy around mass immigration detention, the precarious state of finances in so many U.S. households, and the duty citizens have to “fight fascism.”
Maria Hinojosa speaks with journalists Jasmine Garsd and Kimberly Adams, and author Jason Stanley.

Introducing Bleep! with Ana Navaro, a new weekly podcast from Hyphenate Media Group and iHeart's My Cultura Podcast Network.
Maria Hinojosa, Journalist and Host of Latino USA, joins Ana this week to discuss Marco Rubio's evolution and his plans for remaking the hemisphere. Plus, Ana unpacks other outrageous behavior coming from Trump's cabinet. Listen to new episodes every Monday on iHeartRadio and YouTube.
About the Show: Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story.
The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
Listen here and subscribe to Bleep! with Ana Navarro on the iHeartRadio App or wherever you get your podcasts!

Ana Tijoux’s decades-long career is recognized and regarded for music that disregards borders and genres. Born in France to Chilean parents who fled Augusto Pinochet’s dictatorship in the 70s, Ana Tijoux grew up between worlds. Rooted in culture and global by nature, her music is heavily influenced by Chilean musical revolutionaries and French and US hip hop of the 90s, including greats like Nas and Slum Village.
In this episode rapera Ana Tijoux reflects on the importance of speaking up for injustice regardless of where you live. Listen to Ana’s music, including her new EP, ‘97,’ made with long-time collaborator DJ Dacel… and she closes us out with some singing.

ICE is waging an “information war” on social media, TV, and radio. Washington Post reporters got access to thousands of chats and internal communications from the employees running PR for the Department of Homeland Security.
They run a taxpayer-funded media machine whose main goal is to go viral, whether people love or hate the content. The goal is to go viral. But recent polling suggests the strategy could backfire. Listen to our interview with reporter Drew Harwell.
*Note: Days after this interview was recorded, Harwell was laid off along with 300 of his colleagues at the Post.
