‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR JULY 16, 2021: The F-Word: Jim Crow and Dictatorship in Pre-Revolutionary Cuba… With Manolo De Los Santos… Cuba Protests…Hands off Haiti… (White) Protester Privilege in Florida… and More Headlines


Whether it is a social media bot campaign or a murky assassination plot, the call is: “Hands off Haiti” and “Hands off Cuba.” And for this month’s episode of the F-Word on fascism, Esther Iverem wonders aloud and about racist Jim Crow conditions and brutal dictatorship before the Cuban Revolution and asks writer and activist Manolo De Los Santos if this is the throwback reality that right-wing plotters want to revive. Plus headlines.

Bonus content on Patreon: Professor Gerald Horne on the coming clash between U.S. and E.U. over climate policy.
