Movement MemosLiving Under a Concentration Camp Regime — and Fighting BackIn this episode, Kelly talks with journalist Andrea Pitzer, author of One Long Night: A Global History of Concentration Camps, about what it means to live under a concentration camp regime — and how people can fight back. Pitzer explains how mass detention systems are built through “end runs” around the law, how they become normalized, and why the rapid expansion of U.S. detention infrastructure signals a dangerous escalation.

A queer mother in Minneapolis was shot in the head in broad daylight by ICE, who is occupying the city, and the government has been trying to portray her as a terrorist. And etc.

Though she left for college on a Pell Grant and then a faraway career in journalism, she still clung gratefully to the place that helped raise her.But as Macy's mother's health declined in 2020, she couldn't shake the feeling...
