Description

In part two of In The Thick's LIVE series at DePaul University, Maria and Julio continue the conversation about Latinos and mass incarceration.

Despite making up 19 percent of the U.S. prison population, mass incarceration is often talked about in terms of the black-white binary. How does mass incarceration impact Latino communities, and especially so under the Trump administration? Prison reform activist Luis “Suave” Gonzalez, HuffPost national reporter Roque Planas and civil rights attorney Aisha Davis share their thoughts.
