Hey mi gente, In this special Public Service Announcement we want to inform as many people as we can on the raids announced to deport illegal immigrants. These raids were initially announced this past Saturday the 22nd but were said to be delayed by the Trump Administration until after 2 weeks. We want to inform you of your rights of being in this country because even if you're an immigrant you are still guaranteed these rights as a human being. We were given word from multiple sources throughout the country that ICE agents have been spotted disrupting, interrogating, and detaining anyone they deem to fit the description of an illegal immigrant. Which in this case most likely means people of color. Please, if anyone sees such activity please report it to this hotline 1-844-363-1423. Report any details of the incident to possibly save the lives of families being separated.  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/latinx-nation4/support
