This Moment Of Reckoning For America

The dome of the U.S. Capitol.

A week after the rioting and deadly siege of the U.S. Capitol in Washington - and on this day of the vote in the House of Representatives to impeach President Donald Trump for a second time - we want to share a conversation that included two scholars on our campus: The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

 

Chandra Ward is assistant professor of sociology here at UTC - and Jonathan McNair is the Ruth S. Holmberg Professor of American Music. 

Earlier this week, I spoke with them - and with Marcus Ellsworth, the cohost of the Ground Game Georgia podcast, a spoken word artist and an activist here in Chattanooga.

 

Ray is the host and producer of "Scenic Roots" - Mondays through Thursdays at 3 PM - and WUTC's Editorial Director.
