Dr. Debbie Almontaser: Yemeni Bodega Strike

Less than a week after the Trump issued his infamous Muslim ban, thousands of Yemeni bodega owners - many personally impacted by the ban - closed their stores and protested in front of Brooklyn Borough Hall.  

Chris talks with Dr. Debbie Almontaser, one of the strike's lead organizers, about how the strike came together so quickly, how lots of Islamophobic internet trolls had to Google "bodega" to figure out exactly what they were so mad about, and what's been happening since the strike.
