UCLA Radio has compiled a list of resources and recommendations for community members in light of intensifying ICE raids and police violence across LA. This page includes resources for identifying and reporting ICE operations, in addition to protest safety.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of recommended action items intended to educate individuals exercising their constitutional right to peacefully protest on how to protect themselves should escalation occur. UCLA Radio does not encourage any individual to incite violence or disobey the law.

At a time when large parts of our campus are increasingly vulnerable — whether from the devastating LA wildfires or Trump’s attacks on undocumented and international students — UCLA’s priorities have never been clearer. Its commitment to financial gain and war profiteering comes first, and students and workers are hardly an afterthought.

As I sat down at my kitchen table, I opened up my zoom to someone with a glowing aura. Similar to her stage name, REY has this shine about her from the moment you met her to discussing favorite snacks and musical inspirations. UCLA Radio had the pleasure to talk to Rachel Young, also known as REY this winter, delving into her discography and more.

If you could bottle up the better part of lazy Sunday afternoons, nostalgia, and the sickly-sweet feeling of being in love, it’d sound a lot like Thee Sacred Souls. Hailing from San Diego, the main trio is composed of drummer Alex Garcia, bassist Sal Samano, and singer-songwriter Josh Lane. The self-described retro-soul band consistently delivers a blend of smooth tracks accompanied by jazzy melodies reminiscent of ‘60s and ‘70s grooves. Despite their So-Cal origins, it’s their first time in L.A. and the “SOLD OUT” letters under the Wiltern’s lights prove just how eager Angelenos are to hear their latest album, Got a Story to Tell, live for the first time on tour.

Throughout the interview, we banter with Matt about Machine Girl’s new project, MG Ultra, how the fans have connected with the project, and touring.
