This week, we’re looking into the endgame of the racist and false rumors targeting Haitian immigrants. Are the lies being told about migrants across the country part of a strategy to land a bigger lie: that undocumented immigrants could steal the election?

Parker gets into it with our play-cousin, NPR immigration reporter, Jasmine Garsd. Jasmine has been reporting out of Springfield, Ohio, about how Haitian immigrants there have been used to fill labor shortages, but have also been used as convenient political scapegoats.

This episode was engineered by Robert Rodriguez and Maggie Luthar.
