Two Years After Insurrection: A Conversation with Dr. Barbara F. Walter & Farai Chideya

Jan 04, 2023

Since supporters of then President Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021, over 900 people have been charged — from assault, to destruction of government property. Words like “Insurrection” continue to be featured on news outlets — and after the FBI raid on Trump’s Mar a Lago resort in August, Twitter references to “civil war” jumped 3,000%.

To unpack what is going on — and why — join us for a special conversation with Dr. Walter from the nationally syndicated radio show, Our Body Politic with the host, creator, and award-winning journalist, Farai Chideya.

Dr. Barbara F Walter has over 20 years of experience in the field, and in 2017 she joined the CIA Political Instability Task Force analyzing international data to predict where conflict might happen next. She’s the Rohr Chair of International Affairs at the School of Global Policy & Strategy at the University of California, San Diego and author of the New York Times bestselling book, How Civil Wars Start: And How to Stop Them.
