    Fighting ICE & The History of Resistance in Minneapolis

    Our Participatory Defense family from St. Paul, MN Damon Drake speaks to us about the impact of ICE raids in currently happening in Minneapolis. Damon talks about how their community is supporting families affected by ICE by providing food, school transportation, and help within the court system.  In order to get through this moment, Damon emphasizes the need for unity among different communities to resist ICE and the divide & conquer tactics used by law enforcement. The Twin Cities are a historic site for resistance, we appreciate our family for holding it down and talking to Raj in this convo!

    The Discrimination Playbook: ICE at the Super Bowl & How it Relates to Local Policing

    Welcome to the De-Bug the System Podcast! This episode of "The Discrimination Playbook: ICE at the Super Bowl & How it Relates to Local Policing" discusses the consistent threats from the federal administration that ICE agents will be present in Santa Clara County for the Super Bowl and how this relates to local policing. Our conversation covers ICE activity already happening in Santa Clara County, especially at our local jails, the relationship of ICE violence to police violence, and the accountability we need from local political figures.  This episode was recorded Friday January 23rd, 2026 before Alex Pretti was shot and killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis, MN. We send our deepest condolences to his family and community and we honor and remember all those loved ones killed by ICE agents or in ICE facilities this year in 2026: - Alex Pretti - Renee Good - Keith Porter - Heber Sanchez Dominguez - Victor Manuel Diaz - Parady La - Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz - Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres We are in solidarity with all the local communities that experience the force and cruelty that is paired with international sporting events and reflect on how we, in San Jose, are going to protect our people.

    The Discrimination Playbook: Hiding and Arresting Poverty in San Jose for the Super Bowl and World Cup

    Welcome to the De-Bug the System Podcast! This episode "The Discrimination Playbook: Hiding and Arresting Poverty in San Jose for the Super Bowl & World Cup" dives into what the Super Bowl and World Cup coming to the Bay Area means for the most vulnerable in San Jose in 2026. We reflect on San Jose's iteration of the common-used playbook that uses public resources and police to hide and arrest poverty locally for the up-scale appearance for our wealthy guests coming to town. We are in solidarity with all the local communities that experience the force and cruelty that is paired with international sporting events and reflect on how we, in San Jose, are going to protect our people.

    A People's Tribunal: How San Diego’s Pillars of the Community held the District Attorney accountable for racial disparities in Sentencing

    On this episode of the De-Bug the System podcast, De-Bug organizer Ana sits down with participatory defense organizer Laila Aziz. Laila and her fellow organizers at Pillars of the Community, a San Diego based organization, held the San Diego County District Attorney accountable for racial disparities in sentencing. How did they do this? They held a People's Tribunal, inspired by movement leaders of the past.  With the People's Tribunal, they served their own subpoena to the District Attorney's Office and demanded their attendance to the Tribunal where they laid out the qualitative findings of racial disparity in sentencing in the county, the room filled with pictures of all the young men who were sentenced to die in a California prison.  In this conversation, hear where the idea came from, how it went down and what Laila and Pillars thinks is next. Protect Your People!

  6. The Jail Population is Decreasing, Our People are Coming Home and We Will Continue to Resist a New Jail

    The Jail Population is Decreasing, Our People are Coming Home and We Will Continue to Resist a New Jail

    In the new presidential regime Author J.M. Valle calls out the lies that crime is rampant and urges the county of Santa Clara to investigate what is working to decrease the jail population we have been seeing - all the more reason to continue to resist a new jail! "Part of the presidential campaign was the spread of algorithmic misinformation during the election race. It appeared as if the entire country became rampant with crime like something out of Gotham City. Ultimately, the message we were getting was that California has gone soft on crime. Prop 36 passed, California voted to retain slavery in prisons and San José Mayor Matt Mahan is now declaring war on the houseless."

    The Mass Incarceration Mayor and his War Against the Poor - Audio Reading

    The Mass Incarceration Mayor and his War Against the Poor read by author Raj Jayadev takes a look at San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan and his policies that continue to criminalize poverty, targeting the most vulnerable, for political gain.  "In his logic, it is not the forces and factors that cause homelessness that need to be confronted, it is those who are suffering from it... After a few of years in office, he has zeroed in on the key antagonist of his administration, the reason that fueled his revolutionary charge to begin with, and it comes in the form of any poor person who is alive and visible in San Jose."
