National
Public Radio’s This American Life promotes anti-immigrant
propaganda
By
Eric London
13 December 2017
On December 8, National Public Radio (NPR) ran an episode of This American Life titled “Our
Town,” which legitimized workplace raids against immigrants and justified
tougher sanctions for employing undocumented workers.
The program’s host, Ira Glass, is not a far-right talk show host,
but a favorite of affluent Democrats. His show has 2.2 million listeners.
The episode titled “Our Town” could very well have been aired
on Breitbart Radio. Couched in the language of
nationalist populism, the episode advanced an anti-immigrant agenda by blaming
corporations for giving jobs to immigrants instead of US citizens.
In the episode, Glass describes Albertville, Alabama, a small town
that is home to poultry processing plants, as having been overrun by
immigrants. It “got a flood of outsiders,” Glass says, using the language of
nativists to describe the influx of Latino workers seeking employment in the
poultry plants as “immigrants pouring in,” “a ton of immigrants” and “tons of
Mexican workers.”
Toward the beginning of the episode, Glass gives airspace to Roy
Beck, the founder of NumbersUSA, which the Southern Poverty Law Center has
denounced as part of the “nativist lobby.” Beck has spoken before the white
supremacist Council of Conservative Citizens and is the protégé of the fascist
anti-immigrant advocate John Tanton. Glass uncritically quotes Beck while
introducing him simply as “the founder of a group called NumbersUSA.”
Glass then
references the massive “SouthPAW” workplace immigration raids during which
hundreds of agents descended on small southern towns in 1995 and deported 4,000
workers. PAW stands for “Protecting American Workers.”
During the raids, immigration police dragged people out of their workplaces,
split them from their families and summarily deported them to violent, war-torn
Central American countries.
“The goal was to create job openings for American workers by
arresting lots of people at work sites,” Glass says. “At the Gold Kist plant
outside of town, workers cheered when [immigration agents] arrived.”
This reactionary effort to present deportations as “pro-worker”
echoes the line of Bernie Sanders and the trade union bureaucracy. During the
Democratic primary election campaign, in an interview with Vox ’s Ezra Klein, Sanders
attacked open borders and free migration as “a right-wing proposal, which says
essentially there is no United States.” He added, “It would make everybody in
America poorer.”
This American Life’s producer, Miki
Meek, then interviews the immigration agent responsible for leading the
SouthPAW raids, Bart Szafnicki. This American Life uncritically repeats his claim that the raids did not go far
enough.
Meek says: “Bart
pointed out, there’s never been a serious crackdown on employers. These raids
were short-lived. The fines were low. The chances of getting caught were small.
Bart found it frustrating. Congress never had the political will to go after
the companies that hire undocumented workers. There are congressmen who talk
tough on immigration, but when INS went after worksites in their districts,
they told them to back off.”
Meek and Glass criticize the corporations for being insufficiently
tough on hiring immigrants, citing a 1986 immigration reform law that
prohibited companies from interrogating their employees to discover their
nationality.
Glass says these laws were too lax on employers who hire
immigrants: “In 1995, Congress, in a very practical, bipartisan way that we
almost never see any more, decided that it had to fix the problem and come up
with a simple way for employers to tell who is legal to work in the United
States and who isn’t, to figure out who they could hire… Senator Dianne Feinstein warned, at the time, they had to solve this
crisis now—of immigrants coming in illegally and getting these jobs.” BLOG: FEINSTEIN IS AN
ADVOCATE OF AMNESTY, OPEN BORDERS AND NO E-VERIFY TO KEEP WAGES DEPRESSED.
THERE ARE 15 MILLION LOOTING MEXICANS IN HER STATE OF CA.
But these efforts, Glass says, did not go far enough. “Obviously,
they didn’t solve it. And here we are today. A bipartisan commission called the
Jordan commission considered a bunch of solutions. One of the things they ended up proposing was a national computerized
system to check people’s IDs, and make sure they were valid, and their social
security numbers are real. This is the system we’ve come to know as E-Verify.”
The reference to the Jordan Commission, led by Texas Democratic
Representative Barbara Jordan, is significant. The commission’s findings are
well known among immigrant rights advocates as the wish list of the extreme
right. Breitbart praised Jordan in an August 2017 article as “one of the few Democratic politicians that
believed in a pro-American legal immigration system that ceased on inundating
working class neighborhoods with low-skilled immigrants.” The same article
noted that the Trump administration’s anti-immigrant program, including calls
for expanding E-Verify, “has the same tenets as Jordan’s recommendations.”
The Jordan commission called for militarizing the border,
massively increasing the size of the border patrol, and blocking immigrants
from receiving benefits and work permits in the US. It is frequently cited by
NumbersUSA and white supremacy groups like the Federation for American
Immigration Reform and the Center for Immigration Studies as a model for mass
deportation.
This American Life criticizes
E-Verify as insufficiently strict in stopping undocumented people from seeking
employment. Miki Meek says, “A study commissioned by the
government in 2009 found that over half of
undocumented workers with fake papers—
people E-Verify should have caught—got a
clean bill of health… So by the early 2000s,
you have all these undocumented workers
not getting caught by E-Verify working in the
Albertville plants, which raises the central
question you come to when we talk about
immigration—did Americans end up out of
work because of it?”

Albertville plants, which raises the central
question you come to when we talk about
immigration—did Americans end up out of
work because of it?”
NPR then gives space to bureaucrats from the United Food and
Commercial Workers Union to air their dirty xenophobic laundry. One shop steward, Martha, denounces
immigrants for poisoning the atmosphere at the plant:
ZOGBY
“In Mexico, a recent Zogby poll declared that
the vast majority of Mexican citizens hate Americans. [22.2] Mexico is a
country saturated with racism, yet in denial, having never endured
the social development of a Civil Rights movement like in the US--Blacks
are harshly treated while foreign Whites are often seen as the enemy.
[22.3] In fact, racism as workplace discrimination can be seen across the US
anywhere the illegal alien Latino works--the vast majority of the
workforce is usually strictly Latino, excluding Blacks, Whites, Asians,
and others.”
“[A]fter they’d [the immigrant workers] been there a while, they
kind of thought they owned it. And there was more of them. You know, they kind
of stay with their group, the family, you know, like aunts and cousins. And
just about all of them’s kin somehow, you know? They started changing their
attitude… You know, and it started causing problems. We had quite a few fights
in the break rooms. Then we had them carried out to the parking lot, you know.”
NPR also interviews the UFCW local president at the time, Joe
Ellis. Ellis blames the immigrant workers for reducing the bargaining power of
the union because of their unwillingness to pay union dues:
“And then when the Latinos come in, that changed. And when that
changed, then the bargaining unit changed. Because we didn’t have any
bargaining power.”
Though NPR presents
this as legitimate, in actual fact the unions’ bargaining power was reduced not
because of immigrants, but because the unions are rotten, corrupt institutions
that police the workforce in collusion with the corporations. A 2004 press release from Kroger supermarkets cites Ellis as
praising a deal that the company boasted “will provide wages and benefits that
will allow Kroger to compete with other retailers in the market.” Ellis praised
the sellout as the product of the union and the company “working together.”
Glass says there are many factors behind the decline of wages for
US-born workers, including shareholder wealth, automation, lower unionization
rates and trade with China. While Glass
concludes that immigration is not the biggest factor overall, he claims that
immigration is to blame for declining wages for undereducated workers in the
region. He cites an economist who “found that after 20 years of immigrants
pouring into the area around Albertville,” wages dropped “up to $1,200 per
year, per worker. So it’s real money.”
Meek then confronts a white worker with these figures, telling her
that she would be thousands of dollars richer if it weren’t for the immigrants.
This American Life concludes the
show by referencing Trump Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who, Glass says, is
“always talking about working people” when he “explains what he’s trying to
achieve by limitation.”
Implicitly backing the fascistic propaganda portraying attacks on
immigrants as a struggle against the corporations in defense of American
workers, Glass adds, “He barely sounds like a Republican… says our system’s too
biased toward corporations.” He includes a sound bite of Sessions defending his
mass deportation plans with arguments about benefiting native-born workers.
On this final note, Glass previews part two:
“Next week on our show, we go into town to see what 6,000
newcomers cost taxpayers, and what it was like to have all these immigrants
who’d never driven cars before suddenly on the roads not understanding what a
stop sign is, and why a Latino business owner told his friend to run for mayor
on the platform of kicking out all the immigrants.”

Another ICE Sweep Nets Illegals In Triple Digits, This Time In New Jersey
https://hotair.com/archives/2017/12/13/another-ice-sweep-nets-illegals-triple-digits-time-new-jersey/?utm_source=hadaily&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nl
It’s not as if President Trump and the Attorney General haven’t been telegraphing their punches when it comes to questions of illegal immigration. But all the warnings in the world don’t seem to be helping illegal aliens – particularly those who have run into additional trouble with the law – avoid capture and deportation in record numbers. That happened again this week as ICE pulled off another highly successful operation in the Garden State. New Jersey residents now have more than one hundred fewer illegal aliens roaming around, most of them with serious criminal records.
The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency announced Tuesday the arrest of 101 illegal immigrants, targeting criminal aliens, illegal re-entrants, and immigration violators, and including immigrants convicted of drug- and child-pornography-related offenses.
The arrests were the product of a five-day operation in New Jersey, spearheaded by ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). Among those arrested, 88 percent were convicted criminals, and 80 percent had prior felony convictions.
ICE put out their own press release with the full details of those who are soon to be either leaving for home or heading to prison, and they include plenty of gang members.
These individuals were arrested in the following counties in New Jersey: Atlantic (2), Bergen (6), Burlington (7), Camden (11), Cumberland (3), Essex (14), Hudson (15), Mercer (6), Middlesex (11), Monmouth (3), Morris (1), Passaic (9), Somerset (4), and Union (6) and the following counties in New York: Kings(1), New York (1), and Suffolk (1). They range from age 20 to 71 years old and all were previously convicted of a variety of offenses. Some of the convictions included sexual assault on a minor, child abuse, possession of narcotics, distribution of narcotics, robbery, trespassing, DUI, fraud, possession of child pornography, domestic violence, battery, receiving stolen property, theft, possession of a weapon, burglary, larceny, aggravated assault, aggravated assault on law enforcement, assault by auto, shoplifting, invasion of privacy-recording sexual act without consent, resisting arrest, endangering the welfare of a child, and illegal reentry.
Rape, assault, drug dealing, child pornography… they really ran the full gamut. Other operations taking place at the same time, particularly in Baltimore, targeted members of MS-13 and other gangs, removing drugs and illegal weapons from circulation. During comments delivered in Charm City, Jeff Sessions reminded everyone that sanctuary city policies were making law abiding citizens less safe and making it more dangerous for immigration officials to do their jobs. But that wasn’t going to slow them down.
There was also a less than subtle reminder that even illegal aliens who haven’t been convicted of any additional crimes would not be “safe” from detention and deportation if they were caught up in a sweep. We’ve arrested more than 300,000 illegal aliens just in 2017 and enforcement efforts are only going to increase if new funding requests for ICE and the Border Patrol are approved.
With so much dismal news eating up the front pages these days, it’s nice to see some positive progress on at least one front.
