  • As usual, Dr. Maddow has presented an in-depth reporting that is a “must know” for everyone. This time it is an embarrassingly unconstitutional part of United States History that is a cautionary tale for the current time. Do yourself a favor and listen - then share - this podcast.

We can never quit being active to stand up for our fellow citizens and for our values as a country because, as the saying goes, those who do not learn from their mistakes are destined to repeat them

  • A must listen

    As a Japanese-American, whose father was born in camp at 2 lbs in Heart Mountain, WY, and an activist, I was surprised to learn something new every episode. There are no words to express my gratitude for Rachel Maddow, all who worked on this project of exemplary reporting, and MS Now for producing it. It’s empathic, a wealth of untold history, and exceptionally timely as we face massive state sponsored civil and human rights violations against undocumented, documented and citizens alike.
