Last week, we saw two major disruptions: the election of two Democratic senators in a waning Republican stronghold and an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by far-right violent protesters. The aftermath has shown how divided this country truly is. So where do we go from this?
This hour, we talk about how grassroots organizing behind the unprecedented levels of voter engagement and turnout helped elect two Democratic senators in Georgia, including the state鈥檚 first Black senator. And, we鈥檒l hear more about why the violence at the U.S. Capitol was about maintaining white supremacy and privilege in America.
