These days, a lot of people are turning to humor as a way to make sense of, and get some relief from, this complicated political climate. So, we're starting our show today in Southern California, with an outspoken cartoonist. Lalo Alcaraz is best known for "La Cucaracha," the first nationally-syndicated, politically-themed Latino daily comic strip. It appears in newspapers across the country, and online. He's also been a writer for television, including the Fox series "Bordertown." His work has tackled racism and xenophobia through satire for more than 25 years, and lately, has been focused on the Presidency of Donald Trump. Lalo Alcaraz is the subject of a new book just out this week- called "Lalo Alcaraz: Political Cartooning in the Latino Community."
