RP255: Evil of Trump/Arpaio; Play 1070; Prayers For Texas

Rays Talk Show Episode 255: Host Ray Collazo shares what President Trump’s pardon for former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio means for our politics and our souls.

Collazo is joined by Arizona activist and artist James Garcia to discuss the local reaction to the latest insult to the Latino community and American Civil Rights. Garcia shares the historical battle against Arpaio’s reign of terror that led to this historic moment.

James Garcia explains how this sort of struggle led to the production of his latest Play “1070: We Were Strangers Once.” Garcia discusses how the journey of one family typifies the experience of Latinos during the passage and aftermath of SB1070 in Arizona over recent years.

Collazo, Garcia and everyone in the Rays Talk Show family send their prayers and best wishes to the families impacted by Hurricane Harvey in Texas.
