‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR APRIL 12, 2024: The World On Edge, From Ukraine, to West Asia, to the Pacific…No Work Without Daycare Workers… Plus Headlines 


The ratcheting up of tensions by the U.S. and its allies keeps the world on edge, from Ukraine, to West Asia, to the Pacific. We speak to Gerald Horne. In Congress, Medea Benjamin and activists confront lawmakers and officials about genocide in Gaza. And as billions are sent abroad for war, human needs like child care in the U.S. are diminished or eliminated. We feature voices from a rally by early childhood educators in DC.

The show is made possible only by our volunteer energy, our resolve to keep the people’s voices on the air, and by support from our listeners. In this new era of fake corporate news, we have to be and support our own media! Please click here or click on the Support-Donate tab on this website to subscribe for as little as $3 a month.
