Black Agenda Radio · Nicaragua Succeeds Despite U.S. Attacks

The Central American nation of Nicaragua has been the focus of US interventionism ever since the Sandinista revolution which occurred in 1979. The Biden administration is like its predecessors, committed to undermining the choices of the Nicaraguan people. John Perry is a writer who has contributed to the Council on Hemispheric Affairs, London Review of Books, and Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting and he joins us from Nicaragua to discuss US immigration policies, the RENACER Act and the 222 prisoners recently deported to the United States.
