WE WILL NOT BACK DOWN! Grandmothers on the Move Podcast #39 brings to you the important work of THE ANGRY TIAS AND ABUELAS. Joyce and Madeleine, two of the dynamic abuelas, are thoughtful, passionate, and not reticent about saying they're incensed by what is happening to asylum-seekers, families and children as they cross the border into the U.S. seeking asylum.  The group released the 'Crying Tape" of children in the processing centres being separated from parents, they won the John F. Kennedy Fdn Human Rights Award, they have a powerful mission (https://www.angrytiasandabuelas.com/) and advocate for dignity and justice for people released from Border Patrol or ICE detention.  And it all started with 8 indomitable Women who came together - to DO something about their outrage at an egregious situation - do not miss The Angry Tias and Abuelas!
