Podcast appearances and mentions of alejandra pablos

Maya Cueva makes documentary films that cover the heavy topics: immigration, reproductive justice and xenophobia. Her latest, On The Divide, follows the stories of three Latinx people whose lives interconnect through the last abortion clinic on the U.S./Mexico border. The film premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2021, and is available to stream free of charge through July 18, 2022 at POV. Cueva says her journey into professional storytelling began after covering current events at Youth Radio (now YR Media) as a teen. While attending Ithaca College in New York, she began work on her first film, The Provider, which follows Dr. Shannon Carr as she performs abortions in Texas in the midst of a heated battle for reproductive rights. She's also made Ale Libre, which follows reproductive rights organizer and undocumented activist Alejandra Pablos in her fight against deportation, and Only the Moon/ Solamente La Luna, an animated film about her father's immigration experience to the U.S. from Peru.

While attending Ithaca College in New York, she began work on her first film, The Provider, which follows Dr. Shannon Carr as she performs abortions in Texas in the midst of a heated battle for reproductive rights. That film led to another, On The Divide, which looks at the last abortion clinic on the U.S./Mexico border; the film is currently in production. Between creating those films, she's produced an animated film about her father’s immigration experience to the U.S. from Peru, Only the Moon/ Solamente La Luna. And earlier this month Cueva debuted Ale Libre. This story follows reproductive rights organizer and undocumented activist Alejandra Pablos in her fight against deportation. The film recently debuted at the Big Sky Doc Fest, and later this month will be showing at the San Diego Latino Film Festival, Salem Film Festival and the Thin Line Fest.

Today's guest is Alejandra Pablos from the #keepalefree campaign! This longstanding freedom fighter speaks on her time in an ICE prison, criminal justice reform, reproductive justice, and what we all can do to help change the narrative around immigrants from Mexico!

Immigrant detention centers are bleak places in the best of times, but during a pandemic they are absolutely dangerous. And yet U.S. immigration enforcement has carried on as COVID-19 continues to spread, exacerbating the stress and anxiety that people who are non-citizens and/or undocumented already feel when dealing with a system that is unforgiving in its measures. This week activist Alejandra Pablos joins us to share her experience in one of these centers, in conversation with DPA’s Director of National Affairs Maritza Perez and DPA’s California State Director Jeannette Zanipatin. They examine how the drug war drives much of what’s happening at the federal, state, and local levels with immigration court and ICE raids, and share the urgent need for decarceration and calls for advocacy.   This episode’s guests have listed some resources below for listeners who’d like to take a deeper dive. This Teen Vogue article contains various actions readers can take to help immigrants rights now, including actions around the #FreeThemAll campaign.  The Farmworkers COVID-19 Pandemic Relief Fund contributes directly to farmworkers who have been left out of Congressional relief packages. Immigrant leaders with the Cosecha Movement launched a national immigrant worker fund to distribute immediate emergency relief to undocumented workers who have been excluded from receiving any federal aid. You can pledge to donate here.  The Free Them All action toolkit from Detention Watch Network is an essential guide to supporting the #FreeThemAll movement at this time. ICE’s official guidance on the COVID-19 pandemic can be found here. Vox analyzed the policy and the discrepancies within it in an article here. This op-ed by a co-director and assistant director at Cal ACLU’s immigration response committee outlines the many issues with immigration detention during a pandemic and links to petitions. DPA’s COVID-19 response page contains sign on letters and other actions around immigration and other issues related to drug policy in the pandemic.

The current federal trial against No More Death volunteer Dr. Scott Warren was sent to jury deliberation on Friday, June…

Hey what’s up y’all thank you for tuning in for the 3rd episode of The Cholo Stereo Podcast. My guest for this episode was Alejandra Pablos. A major guest in my opinion because of all the work she is doing literally around the country. She is a immigrant rights & reproductive justice activist & she came through and dropped a whole lotta knowledge. on this episode. We talked about what she does as an activist, what she’s been through & currently going through and also her thoughts on 21 Savage getting locked up due to his immigration status & how hip-hop music is subtlety shedding more light on certain issues. Also We share our thoughts on the Cardi B situation & how the double standard of power appeared to me as a male & how we as men should take a step back, shut up for a minute & listen. Episode 3 Cholo Stereo here we go yo...

On this episode, Yvette interviews reproductive and immigrants rights activist Alejandra Pablos. She shares her experiences being detained in Southern Arizona, breaks down building people power within detention, and emphasizes the importance of access to abortions for undocumented folks.

In the latest episode of Drugs and Stuff, DPA’s Ifetayo Harvey sat down with Alejandra Pablos, a reproductive justice advocate and immigration activist who is facing deportation for a drug offense.  As a young person, Alejandra was arrested and convicted of several charges, including possession of drug paraphernalia. After she spent two years in a detention center in southern Arizona, she lost her residency and was placed into deportation proceedings.  Alejandra has worked to advocate for human and civil rights, dedicating her life to organizing against attacks on immigrants’ rights and fighting for reproductive rights. Earlier this year, she was taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). At a recent court hearing, a judge ordered her to be deported despite living in the United States ever since she was an infant.

On Tuesday, a federal immigration court ordered the deportation of nationally known reproductive rights and immigrant rights activist Alejandra Pablos. In this special episode of Latino Rebels Radio, host Julio Ricardo Varela gives Ale a call to learn the latest about her case.

In this episode Jessy and Rebekah discuss the dangers of city nature – spiders and rats and possums, oh my! – and then get into some more serious territory. As we all know, this administration is monstrous and horrible and made a policy of separating families at the border. Jessy and Rebekah discuss this inhumane policy through the lens of reproductive justice – a framework created by black feminists back in the 1990’s that investigate women’s issues in a way that is much bigger, more nuanced and more inclusive than the reproductive rights framework that is typically relied upon. The ladies then wind it down by reading Jessy’s WTMV Facebook comments. It’s full of hellfire. You don’t want to miss it.01:00: So at it turns out there are not brown recluse spiders in New York City. There are, however, yellow sac spiders which are also venomous 08:20: You can find a clear and concise definition of reproductive justice by reading the first article in this reproductive justice briefing book entitled “What is Reproductive Justice?’ 09:15: Here is an article by Osub Ahmed and Christy M. Gamble of the Black Women’s Health Imperative 10:50: Here is the article Jessy referenced about Alejandra Pablos and here is another one with more detail about her time spent in detention 12:00: Here is an article for Dissent Magazine by Dorothy Roberts 13:19: You can see Jeff  Sessions horrible, disgusting, inhuman statements here.15:40: According to an article in The New York Times, 16:35: Here is an article from Slate about how the entire immigration system is designed to make it impossible for immigrants to navigate, 17:00: And this is from when Sessions announced that fleeing domestic violence or gang violence no longer qualifies you for asylum.17:45: Here is a link to a suit brought by the ACLU 19:51: Here is information about the Alien Transfer Exit Program (ATEP). It is so fucked up.22:41:  Here is a link to the quotes 24:26: Here is the Fox News clip with Corey Lewandowski. It is gross.

On this capítulo of Locatora Radio, Diosa and Mala go over party details, answer Oye Loca questions, and interview Immigrant Rights Activists, Alejandra Pablos, who was recently detained by ICE. Alejandra shares her insight as an undocumented woman, community mobilization, and allyship.

On today's episode of Loud & Clear, Brian Becker and John Kiriakou are joined by Kani Xulam, founder of the American-Kurdish Information Network, and Sputnik News analyst Walter Smolarek.Since the end of March, the Turkish military has quietly been building outposts inside Iraqi territory to attack the Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, in the nearby Qandil Mountains. The move is, of course, a violation of Iraqi sovereignty. And it points to Turkey’s obsession with fighting Kurds no matter where they are. The weekly series “Criminal Injustice” continues, where the hosts discuss the most egregious conduct of our courts and prosecutors and how justice is denied to so many people in this country, including the systematic abuse of prisoners across the system. Kevin Gosztola, a writer for Shadowproof.com and co-host of the podcast Unauthorized Disclosure, and Paul Wright, the founder and executive director of the Human Rights Defense Center and editor of Prison Legal News and Criminal Legal News, join the show. In March, Loud & Clear reported about the case of Alejandra Pablos, a prominent local reproductive health activist. Alejandra is a permanent resident of the United States. But when she went to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Arizona for a routine check-in, she was arrested and held incommunicado. She has been released, but is now facing deportation. Brian and John speak with Alejandra Pablos, an organizer with the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, a member of the immigrant rights organization Mijente, and a delegate to the People’s Congress of Resistance held last year in Washington, D.C. French President Emmanuel Macron said last night that he did not believe he changed President Trump’s mind on the Iran nuclear deal and that he expects the US to pull out of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action next month. He added that doing so would be bad for everyone--Iran, the European Union, and the United States. Catherine Shakdam, a political commentator and analyst focusing on the Middle East, and the author of “A Tale Of Grand Resistance: Yemen, The Wahhabi And The House Of Saud,” joins the show. Teachers in Arizona walked out today in nearly 100 school districts across the state. The teachers are striking to reestablish education funding to the level where it was years ago (it has dropped 14% just since 2008 in Arizona, measured per student) and to stop passing tax cuts on the backs of public education. Nathalie Hrizi, a teacher and librarian and a teachers union organizer, joins Brian and John. The CIA is actively tweeting its support for deputy director Gina Haspel’s elevation to lead the Agency. It routinely retweets articles supporting or endorsing Haspel, while ignoring those that don’t. This would seem to be an ethical violation. Isn’t any federal agency supposed to be neutral on who may or may not lead it? Ray McGovern, a CIA analyst under seven presidents who was also the personal morning briefer for President George H. W. Bush, joins the show.President Trump told the hosts of Fox & Friends this morning that CIA Director Michael Pompeo was not supposed to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un when he traveled to North Korea over the Easter weekend. But Kim walked into the room and the two spoke for more than an hour. Pompeo later said that Kim was very smart, a revelation for US policymakers. Why does the US really know nothing about the North Korean leader?

Herman Bell was released on parole after over four decades in prison—hurrah! But now New York City's mayor, the governor, and the police unions are trying to fuck with him—FUCK THAT! Here's what you can do to support Herman: 1) CALL New York State Governor Cuomo's Office NOW 518–474–8390 2) EMAIL New York State Governor Cuomo's Office 3) TWEET at Governor Cuomo: use the following sample tweet: “@NYGovCuomo: stand by the Parole Board's lawful & just decision to release Herman Bell. At 70 years old and after more than 40 years of incarceration, his release is overdue. #BringHermanHome.” Use this script for phone calls and emails: “Governor Cuomo, my name is ________and I am a resident of [New York State/other state/other country]. I support the Parole Board's decision to release Herman Bell and urge you and the Board to stand by the decision. I also support the recent appointment of new Parole Board Commissioners, and the direction of the new parole regulations, which base release decisions more on who a person is today than on the nature of their crime committed years ago. Returning Herman to his friends and family will help heal the many harms caused by crime and decades of incarceration. The Board's decision was just, merciful and lawful, and it will benefit our communities and New York State as a whole.”

On today's episode of Loud & Clear, Brian Becker and John Kiriakou are joined by Anoa Changa, director of political advocacy and a managing editor of Progressive Army and host of the show The Way With Anoa, and Nicole Roussell, producer of Loud & Clear.President Trump gave one of his signature, over-the-top speeches in Pennsylvania last weekend. Instead of touting the accomplishments of the congressional nominee he was supposedly campaigning for, or talking about bringing jobs to the economically strapped region, he advocated executing drug dealers and promoted myths about himself. Today marks the seventh anniversary of the start of the civil war in Syria. More than 465,000 Syrians have been killed—let that sink in for a minute—more than a million have been injured, and more than 12 million—half of the country’s population—have been displaced. Jana Nakhal, an independent researcher and member of the central committee of Lebanese Communist Party, and Massoud Shadjareh, the founder of the Islamic Human Rights Commission, join the show. Donald Trump will get his military parade, although it won’t include tanks, because they would wreck Washington DC’s roads. Still, experts say the cost of the parade could feed every homeless veteran in America. Brian and John speak with Ajamu Baraka, a longtime human rights activist, organizer, and political activist, and the 2016 Green Party nominee for Vice President of the United States. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has detained a prominent immigrant and reproductive rights activist, Alejandra Pablos. She is not undocumented, but is a legal permanent resident. She had a DUI arrest nearly a decade ago, and advocates say her detention is a result of her activism, and especially for a recent protest she led against the Department of Homeland Security. Margie del Castillo, director of field and advocacy for the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, joins the show. China’s legislature approved the proposal to remove term limits on the country's presidency yesterday, setting the stage of President Xi Jinping to continue in office after his current five-year term ends in 2023. David Ewing, the chair of the San Francisco chapter of the US-China People’s Friendship Association, joins Brian and John. Colombia voted in legislative elections Sunday as the country’s peace process struggles to stay alive amid a wave of paramilitary violence. Yesterday’s election comes ahead of the presidential polls in May and June. Dan Kovalik, a human rights and labor lawyer helping to lead a delegation to Colombia ahead of the presidential election whose new book “The Plot to Attack Iran” will be released soon, joins the show.The hosts present an analysis of the Pennsylvania special election coming up this week. Brian and John speak with Jacqueline Luqman, co-editor-in-chief of Luqman Nation.

This episode of #PEACEOFMIND is dedicated to Alejandra Pablos, a nationally recognized immigrant and reproductive rights activist, who is currently being illegally detained by ICE agents in Arizona. @ROCKDEEPROGUERADIO will continue to keep you updated on her case. We love you Ale!!! Please sign this petition and help us get her released.  Recorded at the FXBG Pirate Radio Studios in Fredericksburg, Va on March 7th, 2018.
