Season 2, Episode 8: A Flight into Chaos: Deportations and the Collapse of Due Process
In this episode of ESL for Equality, host Hannah unpacks a shocking and illegal deportation carried out by the Trump administration, sending eight men, most of whom were not South Sudanese, to one of the most dangerous and unstable countries in the world. We explore what happened, how it violated a federal court order, and why deporting people to a country engulfed in famine, flooding, and conflict sets a terrifying precedent for U.S. immigration policy.
Call to Action:
Support legal defense. Organizations like the National Immigrant Justice Center and Human Rights First are fighting to protect due process for immigrants facing deportation. If you can, donate or share their work because legal aid saves lives.
