‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR JULY 28, 2017: Nina Turner on Our Revolution’s ‘Summer of Progress’…Janine Jackson on Mosul, Fox News and Right-Wing Trolls…Activists Rally for Medicare for All, Trans Rights and BDS



On this show, the political organization, Our Revolution, founded by Senator Bernie Sanders, launches its ‘Summer of Progress’ campaign with a rally on Capitol Hill and a push for eight pieces of legislation called the Peoples platform. We speak to the new president of Our Revolution, former Ohio State Senator Nina Turner. Also, it’s the fourth Friday and media critic Janine Jackson is in the house to discuss possible U.S. war crimes in Mosul, Fox News and right-wing trolls. Headlines on Trump’s Trans ban in the military; in the midst of the healthcare debate, Medicare turns 52; activists protest anti-BDS Senate bill and Gerald Horne discusses Russia-China military maneuvers, the Ray McGovern-Bill Binney report on the so-called DC ‘hack’ and solidarity with Venezuela.

  1. Hi,
    I was tuning into my local KBOO Portland station, instead of Healthwatch it was a surprising program from Pacifica I had never heard. All of it was captivating and motivating on the political, but I couldn’t catch the name of a Stevie Wonder song during the show. The title sounded like Spanish? Could that title please be conveyed to me? The date was July 28, 2017.
    Sincerely,
    Deanna

    • “Ngiculela – Es Una Historia – I Am Singing” by Stevie Wonder.
      Thanks for checking out “On the Ground” and letting us know KBOO is rocking the show in Portland!
