Dr. Marsha Coleman-Adebayo, chair of the Social Justice Committee of Macedonia Baptist Church in Bethesda, Maryland, and author of the Pulitzer Prize-nominated: No FEAR: A Whistleblowers Triumph Over Corruption and Retaliation at the EPA, explains the efforts to protect an African burial ground in Bethesda, Maryland, and how the US disregards its heritage of slavery.
Ted Rall, author and award-winning political cartoonist, walks readers through the slow breakdown of much of the Russian bounty story and gives an update on the prospects for peace in Afghanistan.

The hosts also broke down ICE’s new citizen training academies, the Supreme Court’s big Oklahoma decision, the resumption of federal executions in the US and other stories.
