Events

The Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol is one of the most shocking events in American history, and the gravity of the moment has only grown. What appeared at first to be a chaotic breaching of the building has proved rather to be an organized effort to prevent the certification of the electoral vote and perhaps do harm to elected officials. It was also an event years in the making, an uprising by groups motivated by a white, nationalist agenda. This month’s guest journalists, Leah Sotille and Bill Morlin, have been reporting on these groups and will speak about this long-standing threat and the reckoning at hand.
