‘We’re doing it all for them’: Radio Jornalera NJ exposes conditions faced by immigrants in detention

Article excerpt

Radio Jornalera NJ, a small grassroots media outlet, has become the primary voice reporting on conditions inside Delaney Hall, an ICE detention facility in New Jersey. The station's reporters and volunteers document horror stories, hunger strikes, and protests while helping family members connect with detained immigrants. Operating across multiple platforms, the outlet fills a critical gap in local coverage of immigration detention, giving voice to experiences that mainstream media largely ignores.
