  • For the past 40 days, Pastor Jamal Bryant has been leading a Target “fast” over the retailer’s decision to pull back on DEI. He reveals to Victor what came from a meeting with the company’s CEO and plans for a “second phase” of boycotts. Head Start has helped millions of low-income children get access to an early education. Now a Trump Administration budget draft calls for the elimination of federal funding for the program. Dr. Deborah Bergeron, who led the program under the first Trump Administration, tells Victor why the news caught her “off guard”. Plus, Victor shares the story of Alfredo Orellana. He is a green card holder who helps care for a man with autism, Luke Ferris. Orellana’s wife, Anita, is 7 months pregnant. But now Orellana has been detained for months and faces deportation. The father of the autistic young man he is a caregiver for, along with Orellana’s wife and their attorney, Ben Osorio, share with Victor the impact this is having for both their families ahead of an upcoming hearing. Later, Victor gets reaction from acclaimed environmental justice activist Catherine Coleman Flowers to news that a Justice Department agreement to help Lowndes County, a majority-Black county in Alabama, deal with harmful sewage issues is being dropped, citing DEI. And you’ll hear from 15-year-old Gaby and Miami Arts Studio choral director Cindy Ellis after a video of their high school’s performance of “Bridge Over Troubled Water” went viral. All the singers are either immigrants or the children of immigrants. And Gaby reveals that her father nearly died in the recent nightclub roof collapse in the Dominican Republic, which adds to the post-performance emotions. Learn more about your ad choices.
