Reflections on January 6th, Two Years Later

The Brian Lehrer Show | Jan 5, 2023

On the second anniversary, Andrea Bernstein, investigative journalist covering democracy for ProPublica, Will Be Wild podcast co-host and the author of American Oligarchs: The Kushners, the Trumps, and the Marriage of Money and Power (W.W. Norton and Co, 2020), reflects on the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol, and what has happened in the intervening years. Manisha Sinha, professor of American history at the University of Connecticut and the author of many books including the forthcoming The Rise and Fall of the Second American Republic: A Long History of Reconstruction, 1860-1900, provides historical context to make sense of the anniversary of this horrific event.
