  • Summary

  • Maria Hinojosa is joined by investigative journalist Peniley Ramírez and Producer Tasha Sandoval as they commemorate the 25 year anniversary of the case of Elián González — the six-year-old boy found floating in an inner tube off the coast of Florida after his mother died attempting to flee from Cuba. The custody battle that ensued led to a media firestorm and an international controversy that changed the course of history. Maria, Peniley and Tasha talk about what this case can teach us about today’s political landscape, the rightward shift in Miami-Dade, and the Republican party’s strategy to pull Latinos to the right.
