Why WAISN Doesn’t Use Whistles For Rapid Response, Ballard Sweeps and IMAX Sold
Jane speaks with Nedra Rivera and Débora Oliveira from the Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network (WAISN) to learn about ICE rapid response trainings in Seattle, the increase in violence they’re seeing by ICE officers in King County, and the three break down why WAISN doesn’t use whistles for rapid response. Then, contributor Chase Hutchinson and producer Liam Billingham join to discuss Mayor Wilson’s latest announcement about sweeps moving forward in Ballard and what’s happening with the sale of Seattle’s IMAX theater.
