Show Notes
Protests persist outside Floridas remote immigrant detention center, known as Alligator Alcatraz, for the 35th consecutive week. Demonstrators, hailing from various groups across the state, gather to shed light on alleged issues such as poor sanitation, overcrowding, extreme heat, and inadequate medical care. Environmental concerns also loom large, as expansion plans were previously halted due to missing reviews. Despite official assurances that the center meets all standards, protesters remain undeterred, with around 150 people attending each weekly vigil. Local support is also evident, with a weekly vigil at the Pinellas County Justice Center, as pressure mounts to close the facility.
