Danny and Derek speak with Dawn Marie Paley, investigative journalist and editor of Ojalá, a new online weekly dedicated to in-depth, independent coverage of Latin America in English and Spanish.
The situation in Mexico is so horrifying and hopeless-seeming I physically recoil from it whenever I hear about it, and I'm sure I'm not alone. Glad there's someone there fighting back.
On the creation, nature, portrayal and perception of drug war and drug "cartels": Drug Cartels Do Not Exist by Oswaldo Zavala. Interview with him on TrueAnon, Episode 290: The Beast (interview starts 5:30) from May 2023.

Incredibly powerful interview!! Not hyperbole.
Please have her back.
Excellent episode - one of my favourites. Please have more feminists on, such an interesting perspective.
