Community Voz
Community Voz is C2C's ecofeminist radio show which presents the grassroots work that local people are doing across intersecting movements. Our radio shows are engaging conversations about issues and news you probably won't hear anywhere else. We believe in community radio and alternative media, which highlights the character, beauty and courage of the voices of people on the ground. Tune in for reflections and report backs from C2C organizers and allies on the frontlines of the struggle for farmworker justice. We are extremely grateful to the talents being volunteered by Elias Lopez, Ana Sofia Garcia, and Liz Darrow, who do all of the recording and engineering, as well as KMRE, our local non profit public radio station.

CV S7 Ep 27: Storming the Castle - Inside a Secret ICE Prison
Since C2C discovered an unmarked ICE prison in a business park in Ferndale earlier this year, we have been standing vigil every Monday from 12-1 pm to demand that the facility is shut down. Recently a Homeland Security sector chief reached out to us to offer a tour of the facility and "clear things up". In this episode, Sierra Green, Marciano Sanchez and Liz Darrow discuss the tour, and the ways in which things are less clear now than ever before.
