Friend,
Episode 217 uploaded September 15: Sam Goldman recaps recent events including the
lynch mob atmosphere being whipped up against immigrants in general and
Black Haitian immigrants in particular after white supremacists in Ohio
started vicious lies against Haitians. These lies have been further
amplified by J.D. Vance and Donald Trump including from the national
debate stage with Kamala Harris this past week.
Unfortunately
these recent events couldn’t be more timely alongside this week’s
discussion with Sasha Abramsky, author of the new book Chaos Comes
Calling: The Battle Against the Far-Right Takeover of Small-Town
America.

Sasha Abramsky: What happens when MAGA comes to town? It turns out, when MAGA comes to town, chaos follows if you bring into power people whose overriding motivation is to deconstruct the apparatus of government, you don't get smaller better government, you just get worse government. You just get chaotic government, and it comes with all kinds of consequences.
Sam Goldman: The Haitian people in Springfield are telling anyone who will listen that they are scared, that they feel isolated. What would it look like if the tens of millions of people across this country who don’t want a fascist future -- let alone the federal government -- left the jokes aside, left aside being “personally offended”…and fully recognized the terror being brought down on this community? What if people actually stepped up and stood with our Haitian siblings in Ohio and across the country, acting with the understanding that these attacks on immigrants are the linchpin and battering ram of whole fascist program?
