The Protest Edition
Six stories about people finding all sorts of ways to take a stand.
Jasiel LΓ³pez never expected to be an activist. Then he learned that the DACA programme, which allows him to stay in the US, could be rescinded.
Also: why the jarana, a guitar-like instrument from Mexico, is showing up at protests in the US; women veterans want their voices to be heard in the #MeToo movement; we remember Mathilde Krim, who played a pivotal right in the fight against AIDS; and we speak to the authors of a biography of Josephine Baker, singer, dancer, and civil rights activist.
