This solo episode is a quick reflection on the current political climate in Chicago, focusing on the emotional and social impact of federal actions against vulnerable immigrant communities. I share my personal experiences of protesting against these actions, highlighting the fear and uncertainty felt by many residents, share a brief written account of a one day protesting at the Broadview Concentration Camp and discuss the importance of preparing spiritually and emotionally for the challenges ahead.

Meet Chicome, the creative powerhouse behind Mi Corazon Mexica. Tune in as he discusses his artistic and spiritual journey, the importance of reconnecting with indigenous roots, and his deep love for his people and history. He shares insights into the Wixáritari people, from whom he descends, the influence of his family on his art, and the evolution of his artistic expression through ceremony. We explore the complexities of modern indigenous spirituality that he has experienced in Mexico and California, the tension between indigenous and Western cultures, decolonization, and the complexity of navigating the art world as a white-presenting gay Chicano.
