Karina Villada

Karina Villada, a community organizer dedicated to migrant worker rights, joins Juan Vargas Alba to tackle the misconceptions surrounding immigration and unemployment. They discuss how migrants are unjustly blamed for social issues like housing and job scarcity. Villada sheds light on the Temporary Foreign Worker system that often exploits employees, and they both highlight the grim realities of employer-controlled housing. The duo calls for solidarity between the climate and migrant rights movements, linking these struggles to broader issues of colonialism and land dispossession.
