The Radio Muders

I’m so happy that someone picks up those Haitian’s stories.

Groundbreaking!

Having grown up in Juarez/El Paso, season one has left me for a hole in my heart for the place that I once called home. The systematic sickness that runs in our cultures against women is something that must be reported on and denounced at the highest of levels. Congratulations on such a great, in-depth, non biased reporting, and for have given voice to all those women who have been victims of corruption at the highest of levels. NI UNA MAS!
