Send us a text

Shoresides explores life in coastal North Carolina through the lens of resilience, justice, and community action. In this episode, host Nicolas Magrino examines the implications of President Trump’s second term, focusing on the private prison industry’s role in mass deportations and the human cost of immigration policies. Featuring insights from immigration defense lawyer Martin Rosenbluth and Prison Legal News editor Paul Wright, we uncover how systemic practices affect families, communities, and the economy—highlighting the resistance and the profit motives driving these policies. Listen to understand the stories behind the statistics and the people fighting for change.

Note: Paul Wright is the board chair of Narrative Arts, the publisher of Shoresides.
