47:15Now PlayingIn this episode, Legal AF's Ray Brescia talks to Nora Ahmed, legal director of the ACLU of Louisiana, a leading advocate at the intersection of civil rights, immigration, and human dignity. In this conversation, Nora sheds light on the horrific conditions inside immigration detention centers in Louisiana—overcrowding, medical neglect, family separation, and systemic abuse that leave lasting scars on tens of thousands of people every year. She describes the human toll of the Supreme Court's decisions to weaken the ability of advocates to challenge their clients' deportations and the conditions of confinement. She also explains how these conditions are not accidental, but the result of policy choices and profit-driven systems that have as their goal making detainees so miserable that they choose to self-deport rather than fight their detention. Nora also challenges listeners to look beyond outrage and toward responsibility, urging us to examine our own financial footprints. From retirement accounts to mutual funds, she asks us to review our investment portfolios and consider whether our money is supporting private immigration detention companies like GEO Group or CoreCivic. This episode is a call to awareness, accountability, and action.
