We hit the ground running in January 2020! From coverage of combative housing struggles, solidarity actions with the Wet’suwet’en, interviews with frontline abolitionists, and antifascists interventions into the gun debate; we hope our work shines a light on evolving autonomous social movements and struggles across so-called North America.

On #ThisIsAmerica, we touch on rebellions in Iraq + Puerto Rico, talk with #Wetsuweten Chief Dtsa H’yl on an impending RCMP raid + with @Red_Stringer_NC about why armed antifascists were out on the streets of #Richmond to draw an anti-racist line. https://t.co/m0pQyIJKUA pic.twitter.com/UEFoxhYNrD — It's Going Down (@IGD_News) January 27, 2020

Our podcast also brought our listeners a collection of hard hitting discussions, from the drive to war with Iran, rising far-Right Hindu Nationalism in India, the ongoing impeachment crisis, to interviews with people across so-called North America involved in grassroots organizing. If you missed any of our exclusive content, here’s a chance to catch up!
