How do we make sense of what happened on January 6, 2021 in Washington D.C.? When was the last time that the capital was ran sacked? The rioting in D.C was not an accident. What were the logistics necessary to get over 66, 000 people to the US capital on January 6? At what point does a riot become an insurrection? How do political street fights move to political parties? Is the Hawaiian shirt a coded uniform for the “proud boys?” What will be the risk to the “ right of assembly” resulting from the January 6, 2021 protest that that turned into an unlawful entry into the Washington D.C. Capital? Will peaceful protests become criminalized because of the actions of the DC rioters? Is there a difference in calling the actions of the entry into the capital, an insurrection instead of coup d’état? What is the difference between legitimate and illegitimate power-grab? Why did we create funny memes of the people that entered the capital instead of taking actions of the rioters more seriously? How did information become weaponized?
