Los políticos electos en Puerto Rico are killing a law that protects workers in the event they are injustly fired. It removes severance pay. At the same time, the fiscal control board apointed by former President Barack Obama to manage the island’s economy pays its executive director $600,000 a year — and she has a provision in her contact that if she is unjustly fired, she will receive up to 6 months severance. Uh-huh.

We talk with Heshima Moja on activism even when every fiber of our bodies wants to disconnect from the overwhelming daily dose of Trumpism.
