Found In Translation With Ray Collazo

Leo A Perales of the The Perales Report joins the Found in Translation crew Tuesday night to discuss what went down on the first night of the Democratic debate in Detroit.

Warren and Sanders shine, but others like Wlliamson and Bullock capture the spotlight. As do GOP framing around healthcare, immigration and the economy. And let's not forget Puerto Rico -- cause everyone sure did.

The question remains -- on the heels of last week's People's Convention and in the middle of a slew of summer conferences, which candidates will stand out and move closer to capturing not just the nomination, but also the imagination of American voters?

He predicts fate of Governor Rossello and reveals who he believes should run for governor (you may be surprised). 

Listen to the personal thoughts of Collazo as a Puerto Rican from the diaspora on what this has taught him about leadership and faith in his people.

The 2nd half of the episode is a reply of portion of last week's show where Collazo and guest host Elbert Garcia discuss what President Trump's racist attacks against "The Squad" set in motion for upcoming 2020 elections with Nicole Acevedo of NBC Digital. Needless to say, we maybe closer to a race war than we ever would have imagined. Collazo and Garcia also provide their first preview of next Democratic Debates' matchups. 

Por favor #RickyRenuncia. We have freed ourselves from the colonial mentality through this moment. You need to do the same.
