Longtime immigrants' rights organizer and former Bernie 2020 campaign staffer Carlos Rojas Rodriguez joins "Hegemonicon" to share the history of the youth-led progressive movement of the past decade-plus through the lens of immigrant students.

Over time, Carlos' commitment to fighting for DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) as a college student during the Obama administration led him into broader organizing and activism for all Latinx immigrants. This landed him a staff position in the Bernie 2020 campaign, helping to canvas and organize Spanish-speaking voters in early primary states. In this episode Carlos shares why this felt like the right organizing path for him at the time and his concerns for the future.
