Yvette Borja and Ronnie Wollenzier discuss the article "Excommunicate Me From the Church of Social Justice," why unhealthy/toxic dynamics within leftist/progressive spaces exist, why conflict resolution skills are necessary for all those in community organizing spaces to have, and the connections between the strictures of Christian religious institutions and perfectionist expectations in social justice spaces.

Yvette Borja interviews Germán Gonzalez, one of the Stanford 11 students criminally charged with felony vandalism and felony conspiracy to commit trespass for a pro-Palestine campus protest, the harshest charges to arise out of 2023/2024 anti-genocide campus-related political expression. They discuss what the Stanford 11 hoped to accomplish with their protest, one of the motions at trial regarding whether the word "genocide" can be used to explicate protestors' motivations, and how El Salvador's civil war inspired Germán's decision to become involved in pro-Palestine activism.

Laura Gómez moderates a conversation with Yvette Borja, Laura E. Gómez Latinx People and the Law Teaching Fellow, UCLA School of Law, Gabriela Ibañez Guzmán, staff attorney at Somos Un Pueblo Unido, Mariel Bustamante, PhD student at the UC Berkeley School of Jurisprudence and Social Policy, Emily Morel, community organizer with Red De DefensAZ, and Alejandra Pablos, co-founder of Red De DefensAZ. They discuss the successful policies passed in New Mexico during the last 25 years that allow immigrant New Mexicans to pursue higher education and workforce training, obtain driver’s licenses, receive protection from wage theft and discrimination, and access state guaranteed-basic-income pilots. By contrast, Arizona has passed several anti-immigrant laws, including a ban on cities passing sanctuary policies, served as the center stage for racist policing as immigration enforcement, and is home to many localities that use immigration detention centers as a means for economic development. But Arizona has also served as an incubator for participatory defense community organizing led by directly impacted people, from Puente to Red De DefensAZ. This roundtable explored the reasons behind these divergences and what they can teach us about non-carceral futures in the Southwest.

Yvette Borja interviews Monica Hopkins, the Executive Director of the ACLU-D.C. about Trump's deployment of D.C.'s National Guard to respond to a manufactured emergency. They discuss how D.C. is the canary in the coal mine for future militarization of liberal cities, how D.C. not being a state allows for over-involvement from Congress and the executive, and the racist history that informs why D.C. residents aren't given the full power of the vote.

Yvette Borja interviews Ahilan Arulanantham and Mariah Tso about the Mapping Deportations Project, which unmasks the history of racist immigration enforcement dating back to 1895, the first year that the government published data on deportations. They discuss the challenges of compiling and making sense of centuries-long data of deportations and exclusions, the Mapping Deportations data visualizations that show how immigration enforcement has policed the racial boundaries of the U.S. over time, and whether a non-racist border/ immigration enforcement system can exist.

Yvette Borja participates in a virtual panel with Bernie Hammond and Kerry Maclean, hosted by International Allies Against Mining. They discuss how the Santa Marta 5 prosecution is an example of lawfare, or the weaponization of the legal system for political ends, critique Bukele's ongoing violations of due process norms through the state of exception, and note how the trials and retrials of environmental defenders in El Salvador is chilling speech and expression.
