I started the Undocumented Black Girl Podcast because as a Black DACA recipient from Belize, Central America I wanted to reclaim my story and be the author of my own narrative. So, I’m using this podcast to inform listeners about Black immigrants as it pertains to immigration, politics from the lens of a Black woman who happens to be an immigrant and provide commentary on hot button social issues.
On this episode, I’m joined by Senator Holly J. Mitchell who represents California’s Senate District 30, home to nearly 1 million residents. After successfully tackling her tenure in the California State Senate as, “the legislature’s moral compass,” she is taking on a new challenge, running for District 2 of the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors. Join us as we talk her legacy in the California State Senate, USPS and her vision for the Board of Supervisors.

African Migrant Women: A Cry For Help
In this episode, I’m joined by Guerline Jozef, my sister, friend, and President of the Haitian Bridge Alliance as we discuss African/Black Migration as immigrant women ourselves. We ground our conversation on this day (International Women’s Day) and this month (Women’s History Month) by reading the words of 300 African Women being caged at the T Don Hutto “Residential Center” In Taylor, Texas. In this letter, these women, 200 of which are from Cameroon detail their experiences of indefinite confinement, inadequate healthcare, medical treatment (or the lack thereof), discrimination and detention center profiteering. This letter serves as the basis for our conversation because it describes the conditions of Black/African migrants seeking asylum at the US/Mexico Border, and those caged across the nation.
