Shows featuring Father Alejandro Solalinde

Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Hi there,

Father Alejandro Solalinde

Is a Catholic priest who is on a “Caravan of Hope” across the United States to draw attention to the plight of Central American migrants traveling here through Mexico, and who are often deported back to Mexico into dangerous conditions. He received the 2012 National Human Rights Award from Mexico’s President Enrique Nieto for his work. He is the founder and director of Hermanos en el Camino (Brothers in the Road), a shelter for migrants in the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca.
