Brandon Loran Maxwell joins Mike Madrid for a raw and revealing conversation about his journey from surviving gang life on the streets of Portland to working on Capitol Hill — and why Latino voters are rejecting the old political playbook.

Brandon shares how his time in gang culture, prison, and the arts shaped his voice as a filmmaker and political commentator; with behind-the-scenes stories from his film American Homeboy, previews his new web series Defiant History, and breaks down what inspired his bestselling book Bomb the Wall.
