My guest today is Terry Greene Sterling. She and co-author Jude Joffe-Block wrote,
Driving While Brown: Sheriff Joe Arpaio Versus
the
Latino Resistance.
Last week we spoke about Arpaio s background as the son of an Italian immigrant, his time at the Drug Enforcement Agency going back to the beginning of the drug war in the US, and his talent for shaping his persona and the narratives around a variety of issues, including immigration.
The book is also an exploration of the fallout of Arpaio s policies and how they inspired a Latino resistance movement in the state that, Sterling says, is asserting its political power still.
