The guys are joined by Antonio Gutierrez, an anti-displacement community organizer and leader in the multi-decade struggle for undocumented rights and protections here in Chicago. They are a co-founder of Organized Communities Against Deportations (OCAD), the Albany Park Defense Network, La Guayabita Autonoma Community Garden and the Autonomous Tenants Union. Woven into this web of community work is a deep insistence on the right to remain present and unapologetic in the city they've called home for over 20 years. They talk about the nuts and bolts of anti-deportation work in the city, the emotional weight they are carrying, and how they are anticipating their personal world shifting in the face of future deportation.SHOW NOTESSupport the work of OCAD - https://www.organizedcommunities.org/sponsor-a-casePlug into Albany Park Defense Network - https://www.facebook.com/albanyparkdefense/Organize with Autonomous Tenants Union - https://www.autonomoustenantsunion.org/Follow AirGo - instagram.com/airgoradioFind On
