Join Books & Books for an engaging discussion about the rise of the Latino far-right in American politics on Sunday, September 29. The Books & Books Literary Foundation and the Miami Freedom Project present An Afternoon with Paola and Jorge Ramos, a free book talk featuring Paola Ramos as she discusses her latest book, Defectors: The Rise of the Latino Far Right and What It Means for America, with renowned journalist Jorge Ramos.
Defectors delves into the surprising trend of Latino voters aligning themselves with the Republican party and far-right ideology. Ramos, an Emmy-award winning journalist, explores the complex factors influencing this shift, including race, identity and political trauma within the Latino community. Through interviews with GOP candidates, insurrectionists and religious leaders, the book sheds light on the motivations and anxieties fueling this rightward movement.
This event offers a timely opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of a critical demographic within the American political landscape. Paola Ramos, author and host of "Field Report" on MSNBC, will be in conversation with Jorge Ramos, renowned journalist and anchor of Noticiero Univision.
Books will be available for purchase at the event.
