Episode description

We speak with Ariadna Phillips of South Bronx Mutual Aid, who has been part of on-the-ground solidarity efforts when buses of asylum seekers arrive in NYC, sent from Texas border towns by Gov. Greg Abbott, who calls Biden's anything-but border policy "open borders." So far, around 4000 people have arrived and the buses keep coming, says Phillips, who explains the difficulty of the journey described as "hell" and "prison." She also describes the current "resettlement" process.
