Summary
<p>Jerce Reyes Barrios was a pro soccer player in Venezuela — an underdog living a sports-movie dream. Then he became an immigrant to Trump's America: The administration accused Jerce of being a gang member. ICE flew him to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. And his family hasn't spoken to him since. All of this... for a tattoo about his favorite football club. Paola Ramos reports on how Jerce escaped one dictator, only to be trapped by another, thanks to the very collapse of American democracy itself.</p><p>• Read Paola Ramos' book, "Defectors: The Rise of the Latino Far Right and What It Means for America"</p><p><a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/741645/defectors-by-paola-ramos/"><u>https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/741645/defectors-by-paola-ramos/</u></a></p><p> </p><hr /><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.
