Latin America Unites – Soberanía 93
In episode 93 of Soberanía, hosts José Luis Granados Ceja and Kurt Hackbarth return from a major anti-imperialist conference in Colombia to analyze its outcomes and the urgent challenges facing Latin America.
They share their impressions from the “Nuestra América” summit in Bogotá, discussing the push for regional unity, the importance of the upcoming Colombian elections, and the need to turn solidarity into concrete action. Back on the home front, the hosts examine mounting pressures on Mexican sovereignty, from the contentious suspension of an oil shipment to Cuba to disputed narratives around a high-profile arrest. Amidst these diplomatic storms, they also highlight a positive domestic story: the government’s progress on delivering affordable public housing.
As always, José Luis and Kurt provide sharp, on-the-ground analysis of the political forces shaping Mexico and the region, wrapping up with a critical look at a new conspiracy theory targeting Mexico’s consular network in the U.S.
