Trump sicced the National Guard on LA, ramping up immigrant arrests in a city that’s been targeted by ICE for months.

Here’s how @LATACO, a local taco site tracking the raids, became an essential reporting powerhouse.

Many of the workers in the story are on TPS, a program already in jeopardy thanks to the Trump administration.

Hundreds of Haitians came to Greeley, Colorado, looking for a place to stay and a good job at JBS, the largest meat producer in the world. Instead, they found squalid housing and an unsafe workplace.

Their union alleges human trafficking.https://t.co/uSYrmmtZ5k

Incredible that @reveal won not one, but ✨two✨ @duPontAwards. So honored that 40 Acres and Lie was one of those winners. We worked on this for two years and gave it everything we had. To know that our work resonated with these judges means so much to all of us. Thank you 🙏🏼

@AnnieSprinkle @katemar27768424 Shoutout to the @kqedbaycurious team for helping put this one together and to @oallenprice for introducing the Scarlot Harlot to a whole new audience!

[Steven Rascón @hola_rascon]

My latest for @kqedbaycurious and @KQED is about the lovely sex worker rights activist @carol_leigh.

When I talked to Carol before she died, I had no idea how rich her life was. She really gave to the culture. Happy to help add a little more to her legacy.

The term came to Leigh in 1978 when she attended a workshop hosted by a group of feminists in San Francisco.

How many of us walk through life talking about a piece of history with such conviction...

...only to find out we were wrong. So, so wrong.

Listen to EP 1 of Forty Acres and a Lie: a new series from @reveal and @publicintegrity.

https://t.co/2B4HaLY98p

[Steven Rascón @hola_rascon]

Excited for this @reveal & @publicintegrity collab to go out into the world. A historical investigation into a gvt program that stripped land from a generation of Black families.

Proud to have helped with this series and produce this trailer w/ many others like @nadzhamz

Starting tomorrow, we are launching a new three-part series exploring the lesser-known legacy of America's biggest effort at reparations so far: 40 acres and a mule

🎧 to the preview below—and check out the full project here: https://t.co/X52lGjZyQ5

[Mother Jones @MotherJones]

40 acres and a mule is largely known as a broken promise.

What’s less known is that hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of former slaves did receive land grants—only to have them seized back.

Published here is the largest collection of their stories:https://t.co/yHd83ohDGN

[Sam Sanders @samsanders]

I’ll say this a former NPR employee (13 years!): one of the hardest parts of being a public-facing journalist there is the brand itself. Preserving the brand, living up to the brand’s expectations, dealing w/EVERYONE’S opinions about what the brand should be. I don’t miss that!

[Salman Ahad Khan @SalmanAhadK]

Since November, @gabrielleberbey and I have been reporting this audio documentary on pregnancies in Gaza and I'm so proud to share it's finally out today on @reveal and @motherjones. 🧵 https://t.co/jvZWfvCLV9
