Interview with Yanira Arias, advocacy and leadership organizer at Alianza Americas, conducted by Scott Harris. Yanira Arias focuses on Alianza America’s call for elected officials to reject the expansion of a system that spreads fear, destabilizes families, and undermines trust in public institutions. She also describes what can be done now to mitigate the harm ICE agents will inflict across the U.S. with their new funding.
