Description

August 9, 2019 is a day to remember. It was the final day of an entire week of action and struggle to demand the freedom of all Honduran political prisoners. Dr. Adrienne Pine joins Karen Spring to co-host a discussion that recaps the struggle to free two Honduran political prisoners - Karen's partner, Edwin Espinal and Raul Alvarez. Both were imprisoned for 19 months in a maximum-security prison after being arrested for protesting the 2017 electoral fraud in Honduras. With audio clips from the week of action that led to Edwin and Raul's freedom, Adrienne and Karen give you a taste of what freedom and victory sounds and feels like in Honduras.
