‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR AUGUST 27, 2021: Afghanistan and the Future of U.S. Empire, With Activist Brian Becker and Historian Gerald Horne

For this hour, the subject is Afghanistan and the future of U.S. empire. Our geopolitical analyst professor Gerald Horne spoke on the podcast 'The Socialist Program with Brian Becker' on August 19th, before the August 26th deadly terrorist bombings at the Kabul airport that killed dozens of Afghan civilians and at least 13 members of the U.S. military. Brian has also joined us here on 'On the Ground' as national organizer for the ANSWER Coalition, which stands for Act Now Stop War and End Racism.  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.
