12.3.2025 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Trump’s Deportation Sweep in NOLA, TX Ends Minority Biz Aid, Black Women’s Jobless Rate Soars
Federal agents launched "Operation Catahoula Crunch" in New Orleans--Trump's mass deportation machine hits Louisiana. We'll talk to a reporter who can offer a perspective on what's happening in the Crescent City.
Texas just pulled the plug on programs that helped women- and minority-owned small businesses compete for state contracts.
The unemployment rate for Black women is at its highest in four years. We'll talk to the NAACP's Vice Chair about how the job losses are a direct result of Trump's racist policy decisions that have rolled back years of progress.
And the HOPE Global Forums just wrapped up in Atlanta. The theme: "Future Proofing." We'll show you Roland's conversations with legendary director Bill Duke and the founder of a tech company that can put all your information on your wrist.
