  • #124: Myrna Mack Chang: A Fight for Justice in Guatemala
    2025/03/31

    Myrna Mack Chang was a Guatemalan anthropologist whose commitment to documenting the struggles of indigenous communities put her in the crosshairs of a violent regime. In 1990, she was brutally assassinated for exposing human rights abuses, but her story didn’t end there. Thanks to the relentless pursuit of justice by her sister, Helen Mack, her case set legal precedents in Guatemala and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights.

    In this episode, we explore Myrna’s life, her work, and the legacy she left behind in the fight for justice. Tune in as we honor her memory and discuss why her story is still relevant today.

    2025/03/10

    Imagine a powerful queen so fierce, so respected, that she actually held more military authority than her husband, the king. A woman who ruled with an iron fist, led armies, and held a title no other Maya woman had before. She was lost to history for centuries until archaeologists accidentally stumbled upon her tomb in the middle of the Guatemalan jungle.

    Today, we’re talking about Lady K’abel, the Supreme Warrior Queen of the Maya civilization.

    2025/03/03

    Hey tech lovers! In this episode of The LEO Podcast, we dive into three hot tech stories.

Then, we break down Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) gaining access to confidential HUD records—housing discrimination cases, domestic violence reports, even medical files. Finally, we look at Apple’s bold stand against Trump’s push to eliminate corporate DEI programs. Is this all about innovation and efficiency, or is it just another billionaire power grab?

    2025/02/17

    In today’s episode of The LEO Podcast, we’re breaking down three major headlines that are sending shockwaves through immigrant communities. First, ICE is ramping up social media surveillance—what does this mean for free speech and online activism? Then, Florida just passed one of the toughest immigration laws in the country, stripping in-state tuition from Dreamers and increasing enforcement. And finally, the Trump administration just fired over 400 DHS employees, including those at USCIS, which means massive delays for DACA renewals and immigration applications.
