Today on Sojourner Truth, our weekly roundtable. Our panelists are Laura Carlsen, Jackie Goldberg and Dr. Gerald Horne.
As the nation prepares its independence from the UK, our panelists weigh in on the latest Supreme Court blow to voting rights in the United States. This, as Nancy Pelosi sets up a house panel to investigate the January 6 insurrection. Given the attacks on voting rights and the denial of many in the GOP of what happened on January 6, is the insurrection continuing in state legislators in the Republican Party in Congress and also in the courts? Also today, charges against Trump's business and his associates. Where is this going and what could it all mean?
On the international front, 100 years of China's Communist Party. Is it on its way to becoming the world's pre-eminent power? What are the implications of that? We also discuss the context of the national holidays in the U.S. and Canada. Lastly, the latest blow to Cuba with the U.S. again withholding its support for ending sanctions.
