About this episode
The episode discusses immigration issues in Baltimore amidst upcoming midterm elections, featuring a Guatemalan woman facing deportation and the death of Ted Turner.
With important midterm elections happening later this year, we look at immigration in Baltimore. It's a defining domestic issue in President Trump's second term. One of his boldest pledges was for mass deportations - to send anyone who'd entered the US illegally back to their home country. We meet one Guatemalan woman facing that prospect. Also in the programme: how some of Baltimore's derelict housing is being spruced up; and the US broadcasting mogul Ted Turner has died at the age of 87.
