‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR JULY 17, 2026: The F-Word on Fascism with Ajamu Baraka… When Genociders Host the World Cup… Protests Against ICE Killings and Violence… Plus Headlines on Iran War, Nolan Wells, and More…
Friday, 17 July, 2026
Perhaps it takes an event like the World Cup to expose the hypocrisy of the U.S. being allowed to host the games while at the same time supporting a genocide and conducting an illegal war of aggression. We speak to human rights advocate Ajamu Baraka for this month’s episode of “The F-Word” on fascism. And protests continue against killings by ICE in Texas and Maine, and against construction of an ICE headquarters in a Black neighborhood of DC. Plus, headlines on Iran, ICE violence, the deaths of Nolan Wells and Daniel Erving, Capitol Hill news, and Trump’s continuing efforts to shut down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. 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.
