Black Agenda Radio · Chicago Mobilizes Against Trump

Frank Chapman is Executive Director of the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression. He joins us from Chicago, which Donald Trump has targeted with an onslaught of federal law enforcement agencies and even National Guard units from the state of Texas, all in what he claims is a crime-fighting effort. On September 30th, residents of a Chicago apartment building were attacked by ICE, the FBI, and the ATF, who detained adults and children, broke down doors, ransacked apartments, and arrested 37 people. But the people of Chicago are fighting back.
