‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR DECEMBER 29, 2023: The Year In Review Part 2: Ukraine War Sinks Europe’s Economy… 200 Years of the Monroe Doctrine… The Sahel Stands Up… And More…

This is part two of our look back at 2023, which, as we stated in part one, was a year of resistance. Key to that resistance was telling the true history of exploitation of the Global South by U.S. and European imperialist powers. 2023 marked 75 years since the 1948 Nakba genocide in Palestine, 50 years since the bloody U.S.-backed coup of Salvador Allende in Chile, and 200 years of the deadly U.S. Monroe Doctrine. With Ben Norton, Juan Gonzalez, Bassolma Bazie, and Yasmin from Maryland2Palestine.  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.
