‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR JUNE 19, 2026: The First U.S. Imperialist Foray Abroad: Gerald on the 1893 Coup of the Hawaii Monarchy… In DC, a Social Democrat Prevails in the Democratic Primary for Mayor… Plus Headlines on the U.S. Defeat in Iran and More
Friday, 19 June, 2026
The defeat of the U.S. and Israel in their unprovoked attack on Iran offers a time to consider the first imperialist adventure of the U.S. beyond its borders. We speak to Gerald Horne about his new book on the U.S.-backed coup of the monarchy in Hawaii. And DC walks in the footsteps of New York City and chooses a social democrat as the democratic nominee for mayor. We hear from DC councilmember Janeese Lewis George. Plus headlines on Iran, FBI raid on voting advocates, Mississippi police kill one-year-old boy, Juneteenth, and more. 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.
