Ashe in America welcomes back Corey from Break the Chains Media, joined partway through by George, cameraman for Wayne's Word podcast, for a firsthand account of a chaotic day at a Colorado student ICE out protest. Corey went in planning respectful "man on the street" style interviews, but things escalated fast once he approached one of the more radical booths, sparking a mob of high schoolers that surrounded and chased him. George's experience was worse, he was knocked to the ground and kicked while filming nearby, and both guests walk through the raw footage as it happened. Between video breakdowns, Ashe and her guests connect the incident to a bigger picture, the organizing behind these youth movements, the adults directing from behind the scenes, and how COVID era disruption may have helped seed it all. Equal parts firsthand journalism and cultural analysis, with some genuinely unsettling footage along the way.
