Episode 18: Leftover DEI Information and Illegal Immigrant Deportation
Manage episode 453344792 series 3566653
This episode focuses on the themes of DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) and the deportation of illegal immigrants in the United States. Sue Young begins with reflections on setting up a diversity awareness initiative during her law school years, which wasn't merely a trend-following act but based on lived experience.
She then transitions into a discussion about immigration, highlighting statistics on illegal immigrants in the U.S., historical immigration trends, and the current demographic shifts. Sue explores the potential consequences of mass deportations, the cost, and societal impact, drawing parallels to historical inhumane practices such as the slave trade and the persecution of certain groups post-9/11.
Sue emphasizes the importance of remembering our humanity and the dangers of letting systemic inhumanity go unchecked. She argues that how America treats illegal immigrants will reflect its values as a nation. The episode also calls for scrutiny of industries that exploit illegal immigrant labor and encourages listeners to consider the broader implications of immigration policies on democratic and human rights.
The episode ends with a reflection on historical quotes and literature, stressing the duty to resist unjust laws and urging listeners to be revolutionary and humane in their daily actions.
