Tuck chats with human rights advocate and organizer Ash Tifa (she/her). Topics include:

• Do human rights laws actually ensure our rights?
• What media coverage is missing/misunderstanding about what's going on in the Twin Cities
• Are Black leaders and queer people being intentionally targeted for arrest?
• Plus: Ireland vs US immigrant detention, living in a post-constitutional state, and keeping your nose warm in a Minnesota winter
