Blake on August 4, 2020. Police officers shot Blake, who was carrying a knife, seven times — four times in the back. He survived. The officers were cleared of wrong doing. Those events set off the clashes that led to the deaths of two demonstrators at the hands of a 17-year-old vigilante armed with an assault rifle — Kyle Rittenhouse, who was later acquitted of murder charges. This time on the show, our guest reflects on America’s culture of violence and police brutality, especially against black people.

Musk has called for unfettered free speech online, even while silencing many users who criticize him and gutting the company’s workforce. While rife with propaganda and disinformation, Twitter remains — for better or worse — a sort of virtual public square, where anyone can make a hashtag that might go viral. Our guest today has explored Twitter communities where discourses of resistance have thrived, and shares her mixed feelings about the bitter pill their members may have to swallow moving forward.

He helped found and lead Anataban, a South Sudanese artists collective that organizes pro-democracy concerts, public art, fashion shows and public demonstrations. Arabic for “I am tired,” #AnaTaban has become a rallying cry for citizens seeking peace and justice in a war-torn society. Mathiang says the movement, rooted in nonviolent action, has provided a counternarrative to mainstream media coverage that focuses heavily on warmongering among armed extremists. And it has amplified the voices of ordinary citizens who are still waiting — and fighting — for change.

She faults Democrats, meanwhile, for failing to defend the right to choose with rhetoric that affirms a procedure that benefits families and communities. The road ahead, she says, will be difficult. Will the debate turn now on questions of reproductive justice? Either way, she’ll keep working to preserve abortion access, no matter what legislators do to ignore the will of the people.

For many, like these passengers crossing the Atlantic in 1906, the journey has been uncomfortable, and worse - but also one filled with hope. And throughout U.S. history, the country has rejuvenated itself with new citizens from around the world, following George Washington’s dictum that it be an “asylum” to the oppressed of the earth. But immigration policy, meanwhile, has always been steeped in controversy: from legal protections for the slave trade in the early republic to racist border laws in existence to this day.

Herman Haupt rows a pontoon raft through misty waters during the Civil War. The country’s future was then in doubt. Some say its future remains in doubt today, as Americans continue to argue over who should and shouldn’t be included in the promise of democratic rule. Our guest. this time on the show sees striking similarities among the sources of polarization that tore the country apart more than 150 years ago and the issues that trouble its citizens in the 21st century.

They came out to support women’s dignity and equality and to oppose the new President’s bald-faced misogyny. The activists who organized that march decide to “go in” and struggle to change minds rather than write off their fellow citizens. It’s the kind of work that requires a willingness to engage with people whose views differ, often dramatically, from your own - and it’s not easy. But out guest says such efforts are critical to combating a write-off culture that is all but endemic in U.S. politics.

The year before, millions had taken to the streets and ultimately forced their political leaders to start the drafting process. The result would have been a model for democracy in the 21st century. But while citizens voted by a wide margin to replace their old charter, the new one garnered support from barely 38 percent of the electorate. The problem, our guest today argues, was not the content of the document, but the process by which it came together - and the misinformation that tore it apart.

Edgar Hoover, pictured here in a 1916 yearbook photo, graduated from the George Washington University’s law school and within three years went to work for the Bureau of Investigation, the FBI’s predecessor. As director of the FBI from its founding in 1934, he enforced meticulous standards of secrecy and administrative procedures governing the work of the Bureau’s agents. In doing so, Hoover crafted the lasting image of the dark-suited “Government-Man” on which the FBI culture, arguably, still rests to his day. Our guest this time says Hoover also imprinted his political ideology - conservative values and white racial supremacy. His leadership shaped who the agency investigated and, ultimately, the American political landscape.

And that’s a problem: because whatever appears to have godly powers holds sway over its faithful, entrenching them in ways of acting. We are taught in grade school to revere the Founders’ system of shared powers, strong federalism, and checks and balances. But in its original form, the Constitution also codified slavery, limited direct election of leaders, and gave citizens no explicit civil rights. Our guests this time stop short of saying we should burn this hallowed document and start over, but they do think Americans can - and should - beat it into submission if they intend to address their biggest dilemmas.

Wade. Their decision in June has made it trecherous for women in many states to receive vital health care. But the court has been moving to the right on abortion, election law and other issues for years, in ways that our guest today says are bad for democracy. The idea that nine women and men dressed in black should be deciding policy for the country is rooted, he says, in a mythology that needs reimagining.

Her blindfold has come to symbolize the unbiased practice of law. But when that feature of this symbol first appeared - in Ship of Fools, a late 15th century collection of poems - its meaning was satirical: goddess though she may be, Justice could all too easily be hoodwinked. On this season of Democracy in Danger, we’re putting the law itself to the test, and asking how and whether free peoples can bend the arc of history closer to their democratic ideas. Our guest this time says it won’t be easy, but the most important fights never are. Brian A.

But as our listeners well know, this is a document that was designed from the outset to disenfranchise most people. And citizens of this country have been clawing back their rights ever since, in a two-century effort to establish a pluralistic, multiracial, liberal democracy that protects civil rights and truly promotes the general welfare. Our guests on this episode discuss what we might learn from those painful, enduring efforts as the country charts a course toward more democracy - or slides slowly into autocratic rule - in the years to come.

Barbara Comstock, Sen. Mark Warner addresses a live audience on April 14 at a “Democracy Dialogue” convened by the University of Virginia’s Karsh Institute of Democracy, our parent group. It took place the same day Elon Musk announced plans to acquire Twitter. Show host Siva Vidhyanathan, right, and UVA Law Professor Danielle Citron moderated the panel, held in the elegant room of the UVA’s Rotunda. Our guests addressed what might be done to save cyber speech from cacophony, disinformation and harm, and make it work for democratic ideals rather than against them. Long story short: there’s more room for agreement between America’s two major political parties than meets the eye. Shana Oshinskie / Office of Sen.

Roughly a third of the country’s 44 million residents have been displaced in the conflict, according to UN estimates. It’s the worst humanitarian crisis in Europe since World War II. And the war rages on, as Putin’s army bears down on the Eastern front. Still, from the horror and the ashes a stronger Ukraine may yet emerge, our guest today says. And even in Russia, there are signs that an authoritarian regime’s stranglehold on civil society may yet crack - sparking something like a rerun of the Soviet Union’s dissolution in 1991.

And while neither of them pines for the mythical past of widespread, dogged, and independent community journalism that never existed, they do say we can learn from experiments in media history, both failed and successful. For one thing, journalism could consider funding their efforts through non-profit membership-based organizations, as NPR affiliates already do, They might also reach into the distant past of American news coverage and get more comfortable adopting a “view from somewhere” rather than faking a view from nowhere.

U.S. officials encountered migrants at the country’s southwest border on more than 1.6 million occasions last year, a record high. And under the Trump administration, in 2019, a record number of migrants were accused of unlawful entry or reentry in the United States: 106,312. Such charges can result in prison sentences of six months to two years, and much more in some circumstances. The criminalization of the undocumented dates back the 1920s, when white supremacists in Congress got together with big agribusiness to guarantee an ideal, exploitable labor force for America’s farms. Our guests today say the laws they made back then were, and still are, racially discriminatory.

The major reason: progressive interventions implemented over the last half century, like group learning and classroom discussions, had shaken things up. These trends also brought novel content as well, with curricula that promote critical inquiry, social and emotional empathy, cross-cultural awareness, and a deeper understanding of U.S. history, including its troubling and tragic aspects. All of this, our guest today says, has been under assault since it began - and still is.

As many as 80 percent voted for the former President, a litigious real estate mogul and alleged sexual predator. Trump himself is not widely known for his religious views, but our guest today says he served successfully as a vehicle for the Christian right to achieve new heights of influence in American politics. This fact is now coming into high relief as the Supreme Court, with Trump’s appointees in place, appears poised to dismantle abortion rights. But if you think anti-abortion sentiment is what got religious conservatives organized, think again.

Green represents the agricultural riches of a country once dubbed the bread basket of Africa. Yellow stands for its wealth of mineral deposits. Red is for the blood spilled in the liberation movement of the 1960s and ’70s. A single black stripe: the majority that fought against minority rule. And the flag’s white field cries out for peace and freedom. Yet those promises remain unfulfilled. Today we unpack the legacy of colonialism in Zimbabwe with a pastor who risked everything for the democratic principles that his faith inspires.

Once a sleepy, agricultural community, the Santa Clara Valley became Silicon Valley through a confluence of special interests and fate. Stanford University was boosting its engineering program, the U.S. military was in the market for small, lightweight rocket hardware, and garage tinkerers in Northern California were out to make a buck. Fast-forward to the 21 century, and it looks a lot like the proverbial tail of Big Tech is wagging the political dog in Washington. Our guest today has hope that Americans can reimagine the political economy of the high-tech industry, before it crashes their country’s democratic systems altogether.

Overkill? Well, months earlier, in April 2020, armed demonstrators pushed their way into the seat of Michigan’s legislature and occupied the building, demanding an end to covid lockdown measures. In the interim, officials allege, a self-styled militia group conspired to kidnap the state’s governor and try her on charges of treason. One of our guests today worries these are signs of a wider breakdown in American political life and even potential sparks in a coming civil war, unless the country strengthens its democratic institutions.

Their struggle against state-level abortion restrictions continues, even as the conservative super-majority on the high court appears poised to roll back and even dismantle longstanding protections for abortion rights secured in Roe v. Wade, in 1979, and upheld in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, in 1992. Having allowed the Texas “heartbeat bill” to stand, the court is considering whether a Mississippi law banning abortion as early as 15 weeks into a pregnancy is constitutional. During oral arguments, the lone three liberal justices signaled that overturning Roe would weaken confidence in the judicial branch and belie any pretense that its decisions are apolitical.

The curious subject of our show today, Smedley Butler, was a young Marine who participated in that conflict early in his career, together with a future President, one Iowa engineer named Herbert Hoover. This was one of many foreign wars that would eventually turn Butler away from the project of U.S. imperialism. H.

While they shared an interest in protecting their right to carry deadly weapons, they differed on just about everything else, including threats they said were motivating their beliefs. For far-right rallygoers, this protest was all about antigovernment ideology. For the African Americans who showed up in force, the danger they echoed over and over again was: “the police.” That’s no surprise to our guest this week - who shares with us her disquieting research on the history of the second amendment, which she says is tearing apart the soul of America.

It was a moment of reckoning in the former capital of the rebellious South, as citizens called for recognition and redress of a long history of slavery and racism. Changes would come: under democratic control, the state expanded voter access, enfranchised many ex-felons and strengthened gun laws. But our guest today is worried about pushback against democratic progress from the old Old Dominion; and a new Governor, taking his lead from other states like Texas and Florida, is questioning what educators are teaching in public schools.

Earlier in the week, rioters — some armed with pepper spray and clubs — had stormed the halls of Congress and nearly upended a transition of power. Egged on by President Trump’s baseless claims of election fraud, insurrectionists clamored for authorities to “stop the steal,” shouted “Hang Mike Pence!” and breached the Senate floor as lawmakers scrambled to escape. Since then, more than 700 rioters have been arrested and charged with crimes in the assault. Some 50 have been convicted, with fewer than half of those facing jail time. Now the real question is whether anyone in power will be held accountable for supporting the mayhem. M.L.

Touting baseless claims, the ruling junta has accused Suu Kyi of election fraud, corruption, incitement, and violations of pandemic restrictions. Now 76, she is facing one four-year prison sentence and another 100 years or more. Meanwhile, many demonstrators continue to oppose the regime by peaceful means, while others have taken up arms against the military. A former colony of the United Kingdom, Myanmar - or Burma - may descend into yet another civil war. This week, we speak to an exiled official in Suu Kyi’s party about his recent ordeals, and what he thinks the international community can do to support the dream of democracy in his native country.

The island has seen more than two decades of economic crisis as it moved to promote foreign tourism and keep its state-socialist system in place. The results: Deepening inequality, widespread dissatisfaction, continued migrations and profound cynicism about the country’s future. The centuries-old hope for Cuban sovereignty, prosperity and solidarity remains a dream deferred. Our guest this week tells us what the United States has to do with the troubled past as we reflect on recent protest movements, the government crackdowns that followed them, and the possibility of politica; change in America’s closest of enemies.

A political novice, Youngkin worked for 25 years at the private equity firm the Carlyle Group before rising to become the company’s co-chief executive. During his run for office this year he lashed out at teaching about slavery and racism in public schools, expressed doubts about the “integrity” of the election process and pledged to make it harder for women to get abortions. But it’s unclear exactly what a Youngkin administration will do or focus on beyond these hot-button issues. And as our hosts discuss this week, Youngkin’s opponent seemed mostly to be running on a stale platform against a private citizen living in Florida named Donald Trump.

Perhaps one of the wildest and wooliest states in the Union when it comes to electoral politics, the sunshine state has many clashing stories to tell. In 2000 it was ground zero in the post-election standoff between Al Gore and George W. Bush. Since then, it has continued to see a huge influx of residents from all over the country - and all over Latin America. Floridians are getting younger, more diverse, and more difficult than ever to predict at the polls. And while the state adds tens of thousands of former felons to its voting rolls and expands its marijuana industry, GOP leaders are fighting Federal vaccine rules, making it harder to vote mail and limiting public input on redistricting.

Donald Trump won the county in 2020 with close to 63 percent of the vote, but he lost the state by more than 13 percentage points. Given that dynamic, pushing for an audit of results in Mesa County would seem to defy logic. And yet, a Washington Post investigation suggests it is precisely in such localities that the “big lie” narrative about President Biden’s victory is gaining traction: in this case, with help from a local election official and conspiracy theorist.

Below, the state motto reads, in Latin: “Thus always to tyrants.” But one of the most obstinate threats to democracy in the Old Dominion - and across the United States - isn’t a person or even a party. It’s gerrymandering, the age-old practice of constructing geographically absurd voting districts to benefit politicians rather than their constituents. Our guests this time discuss the failing effort in Virginia to undo the worst aspects of partisan redistricting, and they consider key issues like education and abortion that have featured in the state’s gubernatorial campaigns.

But the decision to keep fewer boots on the ground and make overseas combat more targeted, impersonal, and technological has come with a heavy moral and human toll. Hundreds of non combatants have been killed in drone strikes as their frequency has expanded, both as collateral damage or due to ghastly mistakes - most recently in an errant missile attack in Kabul on Aug. 29, as the United States rushed to evacuate personnel and refugees from the city. Military commanders and the Secretary of Defense have apologized and said they’ll learn from the tragedy. But what does that mean in a world where we are never really at peace?

Returning to Saint-Domingue to reestablish control over the rebellious colony and reinstitute plantation slavery, French forces encountered indomitable resistance. Under attack and siege for 20 days at the fortress if Crete-A-Pierrot, Jean-Jaques Dessalines and his men stunned their enemies with tenacity in battle and in retreat. Surrendering the fortress, they escaped to fight another day, until France’s army was defeated and Dessalines declared independence, on Jan. 1, 1804, taking the indigenous name of the island - Haiti - for this new country. Our guests today suggest that, in a sense, Haiti has been under siege by world powers ever since.

For many, memories of that time resonate with the American withdrawal last month from Afghanistan, after 20 years of conflict and failed efforts to prop up a new national government. According to Brown University’s costs of war project, the United States will have sunk $8 trillion on war efforts and national security in the post-9/11 era. In that time more than 30,000 American soldiers and veterans have taken their own lives.

Out guest today says that for years the American public was offered a pack of lies about he progress of the war in Afghanistan: that the conflict was winnable, that all that was needed was a few more troops, a bit more time, and more diplomatic engagement. And with each successive presidential administration - democrat and republican - the United States sank deeper and deeper into the quagmire, as the Taliban regrouped and prevailed. Now, instead of beat0up tanks, they use state-of-the-art American equipment confiscated from their adversaries.

In the intervening century and a half, the vision of the party espoused shifted radically. While republicans in the 1860s stood up against slavery, in the 1960s they tapped an ultra-conservative presidential nominee who was opposed to civil rights and defended “extremism” as a virtue. Our expert guests on this episode say that moment marked a pivot in the GOP’s trajectory, and was a precursor to the illiberal politics of Donald Trump. What will it take for the republican party to repair itself and rebuild a broad coalition of voters?

One of our guests today calls the pandemic response in India “the greatest moral failure” of a generation. Many blame the country’s autocratic prime minister, Narendra Modi, whose Bharatiya Janata Party, or BJP, advocates Hindu nationalism in contrast to the secular, pluralistic democracy that India’s founders had envisioned.

Our guest on this episode highlights the contrast between the autocratic state, which is terrified of losing its grip, and an opposition movement that is creative, fearless and future-looking. The stakes are high for proponents of democracy in this behemoth of the former Soviet Union, and the consequences dire. Not just for Russians but for the world.

The government of then–President Viktor Yanukovych, under pressure from his puppeteers in Moscow, had shelved plans to sign an association agreement with the European Union. The protests would quickly turn violent as police cracked down on crowds, killing more than 100 civilians. Yanukovych eventually fled Ukraine and was forced out of office, setting the stage for the country’s ongoing and undeclared war with Russia.

The city is vibrant, cosmopolitan, and growing, but most Swazis rely on subsistence farming, while the domestic economy remains rooted in a history of extractivism dating back to British rule, which ended in 1968. Our guest on the episode grew up in Swaziland. As the child of foreign aid workers, he witnessed the postcolonial predicament first-hand, and that experience helped shape his scholarship on democracy, the global economy, and the politics of ecology.

After that, the Census Bureau determined that this and several other supplemental questions were detrimental to an accurate count, and relegated them to the “long form” questionnaire, which only a small percentage of people received. In 2010, even the long form was discontinued. Then came 2020, and President Trump’s anti-immigration politics.

The cost of a Bachelor’s Degree has come under scrutiny in particular during the pandemic, as schools across the country have moved loads of instruction online, even as they keep dormitories full and budgets in the black. What does all this have to do with democracy? Well, if education is going to create and maintain equal opportunity in a free society, it cannot also serve as an engine of inequality that threatens democratic ideals. Our guest this time says we’re doing all right - but acknowledges there’s more work to do. Brian A.

The weathered American flag covering the shop’s entranceway seems to invoke - or perhaps indict - the ideology of American progress. All over the heartland towns like this are being hollowed out. And as our guest today explains, finding common ground and a common purpose that might equitably redistribute the fruits of democracy won’t be easy, especially when politicians stoke longstanding racial and ethnic animosities. This much is certain: it will take political work to sweep away our fears of each other and weave a new vision of America.

President Trump came to office in 2016, vowing to “build the wall” - and to make Mexico pay for it. Construction of new barriers did not begin until February 2019, after a protracted legal battle over the plan and ho wit would be funded. A lawsuit brought by House Democrats challenging the wall was reinstated in Federal Court this summer.

He is pictured here greeting Martin Luther King Jr., Clarence Mitchell, and Patricia Roberts Harris at the signing ceremony in the U.S. Capitol that day. Our guest in this episode calls the VRA game-changing, but it entered the crosshairs of white southern powerbrokers immediately. And in 2013, the Supreme Court did away with its most important feature - “preclearance” required by the Justice Department for discriminatory voting laws.

Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, he traveled to Waco, Texas, in April 1993, where he witnessed the 51-day standoff between law enforcement and the Branch Davidian Religious Sect. An FBI-led raid in Waco ended in 76 people dying in a conflagration, and McVeigh cited vengeance against the government as part of his and his co-conspirators’ motivation in the Oklahoma City bombing exactly two years later. He’s pictured here during the siege in Waco, where he handed out gun-rights flyers and bumper stickers with slogans like When guns are outlawed, I will become an outlaw.

Before Russian-backed operatives sowed falsehoods and distrust in the last U.S. National Election, Putin’s government trained disinformation tactics on Ukraine’s domestic politics and foreign relations and practiced exerting its influence elsewhere in Eastern Europe.

So will one in six Hispanic boys. Women, meanwhile, are the fastest-growing inmate population. This time on Democracy in Danger, find out what these statistics have to do with President Johnson’s war on poverty, civil unrest across American cities in the 1960s, and the militarization of police forces.

Rika Lee’s work suggests that what is surprising about contemporary xenophobia is not that it’s just as transparent, but that we forget its deep roots in American history.

Arguably, the President was playing to influential voices on the religious right: White Evangelicals who would like to recreate America in their own image of Christianity.

His administration has since rolled back protections for Indigenous and minority groups, rejected the science behind climate change, and denied the severity of the coronavirus pandemic - even as Brazil has climbed to second place in infections and deaths, behind only the United States. Bolsonaro himself contracted COVID, and in early July removed his face mask in front of reporters in a display of bravado, to show he was getting better.

Barry Goldwater to run for President on the Republican ticket. The effort was doomed - Richard Nixon handily won the nomination. But it had lasting implications and marked a turning point for politics and the media in the United States. This image shows Klansmen supporting Goldwater at the GOP National Convention in San Francisco, in 1964, as a counterprotester pushes back their signs. Nicole Hemmer sees a historical connection between the tactics that brought Goldwater to prominence in those days and the influence of White Nationalism in conservative media today. Warren K.
