The EPW Podcast: Recent Episodes
EPW
In a country where 18 million Latinx students attend school, public education is not serving them all well. The Estas en el Puro Wyoming Podcast, better known as the EPW Podcast is made up of Latino leaders working on the ground to ensure kids get the education they deserve and to authentically talk about education issues impacting the Latinx community.
Part of the 8 Black Hands (@8BlackHands1) Media Universe.
In this episode, we discuss the impact of an organization focused on training Latino youth in leadership and communication skills and why its needed and why our schools are not teaching these skills to really anyone.

In this episode, we continue our conversation on EL students that started last episode.
We dip into the study of EL students and teacher attitudes conducted in Georgia, the implications for teachers and our community and as well as solutions and final thoughts on the subject.

We dug in deep into how English Learner Latino students are not only being singled out but treated both anecdotal by teachers and systemically by districts as inferior students without the legal supports they are entitled to. Put some respect on these students! The EPW Crew has their back!! Enjoy the show.

The gloves are off! Holy smokes, ladies and gentlemen. In Part II, the carnales have a no holds barred conversation about immigration in the United States sparked from the recent ICE raids in Mississippi. The Texas governor and the mayor of El Paso get called out for their abysmal leadership during and after the crisis, we delve deep into the historical context and public policy of US immigration and shout-out and invite a celebrity author to eventually join us on the podcast. Warning, this conversation is intense and a must listen!

The carnales reunite to recap the Superintendent headbutt heard 'round the world, the aftermath of the El Paso shooting two weeks later and introduce the main topic of immigration in the US after the Mississippi ICE raids. This two-parter was broadcast at the Power of the Pass here in El Paso with our special guest Valentin Sandoval. Its the lighter side to the two-parter and a must-hear to be prepared for the intensity of Part II.

The EPW crew step back and really process the recent shooting in El Paso, which is the hometown of our hosts. It’s a somber episode but a needed one. Oh, and Omar finally explains what the pod’s name means. FINALLY! :-)
They also welcome Cassandra Hernandez (Twitter: @district3elpaso), City Representative for District 3 in El Paso on so they could all process together. It was a powerful episode.
