aequa Radio: Prairieland Defendants | Sarj

With Sarj

On aequa Radio episode #47, we’re honored to have had the chance to interview one of the many organizers supporting the Prairieland Defendants — a group of 18 people being unjustly tried in North Texas for having organized a noise demonstration against ICE at the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas last July.

Quoting the group’s website:

“All but one are still in custody, being held on multi-million dollar bails and enduring horrific conditions. The accusations of the government are absurd, and the police response has been extreme, making it obvious that this is part of an effort to criminalize dissent along with the other high profile cases in Spokane, Portland, and Illinois. It has repeatedly been used by the Trump administration and its allies as an example of violence by ‘antifa’.”

We’ll be getting into it about the current state of the case, the propaganda and tactics being used by the state, and why the Prairieland case should be a big concern for anyone and everyone organizing against ICE or in any way pushing back against the current administration in the so-called U.S. at this time.
