A new piece published today on Hatewatch, Lifting Up 鈥淭he Voices of the Good Guys:鈥 A Q&A with Sounds Like Hate鈥檚 Newest Host, by Research Analyst Freddy Cruz offers an inside look at Latty鈥檚 approach to the season and the stories she shares of those harmed by hate and extremism.听
听
She joins award-winning independent journalist and co-host Jamila Paksima, as they examine the rights and lives of individuals who encounter hate in just trying to be accepted for their true selves, and despite decades of civil rights battles and triumphs are forced to continue struggling for the equal rights and protections promised to all Americans.

鈥淭here鈥檚 a lot of people who are thick in the fight who are not being seen,鈥 said Latty. 鈥淎mplify the voices of the people that are trying to do good. Support them, and then think, in your own way, what you can do to stop hate. It doesn鈥檛 have to be something dramatic, it can be something small and simple that can have ripple effects.鈥澨

The first episode, which dropped last week, illustrates how the new anti-voter laws, like Georgia鈥檚 S.B. 202, create barriers to voting not only for voters of color, new voters, and young voters but for a less widely known impacted group: Americans with disabilities.

Later this season Sounds Like Hate will look at the growing number of migrant deaths on the Arizona/Mexico Southern border with the surge of people attempting to immigrate to the United States. In the second episode on the deaths of migrants, the hosts will expose the concerning vigilante activity of some Militia groups in the region that includes intervening in the detention of migrants and their forced transport to U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents, who are often complicit or looking the other way.听
