Alligator Alcatraz and the Rise of the Secret Police: What YOU Can Do About It
Manage episode 492198549 series 3569483
In this episode of Colonial Outcasts, we dive deep into the shocking realities of Florida’s controversial “Alligator Alcatraz” migrant detention center and its ties to the growing influence of fascism and authoritarianism in the U.S. From the Florida GOP’s for-profit detention grift to the dangerous precedent set by Trump’s "Big Beautiful Bill," we discuss how state violence—whether abroad or at home—is all connected by capitalism.
Join Greg Stoker, co-host Mark Wayne, and special guest Jack Jones (Immigrant, US Army Veteran, and anti-war activist) as we explore the disturbing implications of ICE's role in shaping the future of the carceral state, the militarization of the border, and the potential shift towards a Secret Police regime.We also cover the latest geopolitical developments, including the U.S.-brokered “peace deal” in the DRC and Israel's refusal to honor ceasefire promises in Gaza. It's all connected. And it’s all leading to a more violent, repressive future.
