Today on Sojourner Truth:
Donald Trump talks about cleaning up the streets of homeless people, within the context of discussing with Tucker Carlson of Fox News "filth" in urban centers in the United States. In Los Angeles, on any given night, the homeless population ranges from 50,000-60,000 people, with some saying that's a low-ball figure. Sanitation crews were ordered by the City of Los Angeles to clear an encampment of homeless people near City Hall. Joining us to discuss the crisis of homelessness is Pete White, founder and co-director of the Los Angeles Community Action Network.
As the nation celebrated Pride Month, the 11th murder victim of a Black trans woman was announced. We are joined by Jennicet Gutierrez, a transgender Latina organizer from Mexico.
And, we discuss the latest escalation of tensions between the United States and Iran with Alice Slater, the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation's New York representative. She is a member of the Global Council of Abolition 2000, a global network working for a treaty to eliminate nuclear weapons.
