LA protests: Resisting Trump’s racist deportations | Green Left Show #59

United States President Donald Trump sent the National Guard and US Marines to quell big community protests in Los Angeles, California against the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency’s forced deportations of immigrants. 

 

LA-based socialist Thomas Malone, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America Bread and Roses Caucus and organiser with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), has been participating in the protests and spoke to Green Left’s Isaac Nellist about the intense police repression, Trump’s anti-immigrant politics and how the movement against ICE could expand. 

 

Malone will be speaking at an upcoming forum on the LA protests hosted by Green Left and Socialist Alliance in Naarm/Melbourne on June 24, 6pm at the Resistance Centre, Floor 5, 407 Swanston St Melbourne VIC 3000, or join online. Details at greenleft.org.au/events.
