Today on Sojourner Truth:

For our ongoing Campaigners for Black Lives series, six people have died in recent hangings across the U.S., including the hanging death of 20-year-old Amani Kildea in Morris County, New Jersey.

Our guest is Zellie Imani, a Black Lives Matter activist, organizer, journalist and educator based in New Jersey.

The President of Mexico is set to visit Donald Trump today. So, who is using whom? Is Trump using the Mexican President to garner votes among Latinos in the upcoming presidential election? What is Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador risking with this visit? What, if anything, do the two presidents have in common? We speak with Jose Luis Granados Ceja, a writer and photojournalist based in Mexico City. He previously worked as a staff writer for teleSUR and currently works on a freelance basis. His stories focus on contemporary political issues, particularly those that involve grassroots efforts to affect social change. He often covers the work of social and labor movements in Latin America.
