‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR JANUARY 7, 2022: Brian Becker, Gerald Horne and DC Residents on the One-Year Anniversary of January 6… Mainstream Fears of Fascism… The Demand for Voting Rights… Plus Headlines


On the one-year anniversary of January 6, DC is still wrestling with the meaning and aftermath of that day, when a violent mob attacked the U.S. Capitol as Donald Trump tried to decertify Joe Biden’s win in the 2020 Presidential election. With voices from the streets, and a discussion between activist Brian Becker and Historian Gerald Horne.

Plus more headlines: Wanda Mosley of Black Voters Matter calls out Biden and Chuck Schumer… Covid cases rise (and mismanagement continues)… Civil rights groups filed a lawsuit against Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger because of racial gerrymandering… Author Marian Williamson spoke to Code Pink Congress about the links between student debt and the military budget.
