Al Gore’s Rallying Cry Ahead of Saturday’s No Kings Protests
Twenty years after An Inconvenient Truth made a devastating case for climate action, American leadership on the issue has all but vanished. But former Vice President Al Gore, the film’s crusading star, hasn’t given up hope. In a sit-down interview with Reveal’s Al Letson this week, Gore returned to a familiar theme from across his […]https://murica.website/2026/03/al-gores-rallying-cry-ahead-of-saturdays-no-kings-protests/

How RFK Jr. is Dismantling America’s Health Policies
The new food pyramid says it all. In January, the federal government released updated dietary guidelines for Americans that reimagine the pyramid by literally turning it upside down. The guidelines, which once prioritized foods like grains while minimizing fats, now recommend red meat, whole milk, proteins, and healthy fats. It’s one of the most unmistakable […]https://murica.website/2026/03/how-rfk-jr-is-dismantling-americas-health-policies/

Iran, the US, and the Making of a New Middle East
US and Israeli military strikes against Iran that killed several of the country’s top officials, including longtime supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, have ushered in a new and unpredictable era in the Middle East. Within hours, Iran retaliated, striking US allies across the Persian Gulf, including US embassies and a military operations center in Kuwait.

Ibram X. Kendi vs. America’s “Antiracism Backlash”
Just a few years ago, historian and activist Ibram X. Kendi seemed to be everywhere. At the height of the Black Lives Matter movement, he became one of the leading voices on racism in America—and particularly what he described as antiracism. In 2019, his book How to Be an Antiracist became a bestseller. And later, […]https://murica.website/2026/02/ibram-x-kendi-vs-americas-antiracism-backlash-2/

The Man Who Taught Nonviolence to Martin Luther King Jr.
Back in February 2010, the radio show State of the Re:Union, created by Al Letson, produced an award-winning episode looking at civil rights activist Bayard Rustin. The episode was called “Who Is This Man?” because while Rustin was not well known, his work supported the likes of Martin Luther King Jr. Rustin was a man […]https://murica.website/2026/02/the-man-who-taught-nonviolence-to-martin-luther-king-jr/

How Project 2025 Is Reshaping Our Country
During the 2024 presidential campaign, a conservative playbook emerged. Created by the Heritage Foundation, this 900-plus-page document was a roadmap written for a future conservative president. And while some Republicans tried to distance themselves from Project 2025, the authors and the concepts they wrote about have been embraced by President Donald Trump. Journalist David A.

How ICE Became Trump’s Very Own Paramilitary Force
Over the last few weeks, Minneapolis has looked like a city under siege. The Trump administration has sent roughly 3,000 federal agents to Minnesota in what Todd Lyons, acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, has called the “largest immigration operation ever.” This comes as protests have spread around Minneapolis and across the country demanding […]https://murica.website/2026/01/how-ice-became-trumps-very-own-paramilitary-force/

How a Climate Doomsayer Became an Unexpected Optimist
Bill McKibben isn’t known for his rosy outlook on climate change. Back in 1989, he wrote The End of Nature, which is considered the first mainstream book warning of global warming’s potential effects on the planet. Since then, he’s been an ever-present voice on environmental issues, routinely sounding the alarm about how human activity is […]https://murica.website/2025/12/how-a-climate-doomsayer-became-an-unexpected-optimist-2/

A Decade of Reveal
The first pilot episode of Reveal exposed how the Department of Veterans Affairs was overprescribing opioids to veterans and contributing to an overdose crisis. Journalist Aaron Glantz explained how he received—surprisingly quickly—a decade’s worth of opioid prescription data from the federal government. “Sometimes, you have to sue to get the records,” he said. “I have […] -

The Bible Says So…or Does It?
Dan McClellan has spent much of his life learning—and relearning—what the Bible and its authors were trying to tell us. But the years he spent in graduate school studying Hebrew texts, Near Eastern cultures, and the concept of deity taught him something else: The way scholars talk about the Bible is much different from how […]https://murica.website/2025/12/the-bible-says-soor-does-it-2/

Why Trump Deemed Basic Sanitation Illegal DEI
For many Americans, proper sanitation and clean water seem like issues for developing countries. But much of rural America—and even parts of US cities—still struggles to provide the basics we all need to survive. And as infrastructure ages and strains under the threat of climate change, the problems will likely get worse. Environmental justice activist […]https://murica.website/2025/12/why-trump-deemed-basic-sanitation-illegal-dei/

Why America Is Obsessed With True Crime
In 2001, John J. Lennon killed a man on a street in New York City. He was convicted of murder several years later and given the maximum sentence—25 years to life in prison—on top of three additional years for two other convictions. From behind bars, Lennon began reckoning with his crime through in-prison writing workshops […]https://murica.website/2025/11/why-america-is-obsessed-with-true-crime/

Executions Are Rising in the US. This Reverend Witnesses Them.
About 2,100 people are on death row in America. Some have been there for decades, in part because executions have been on the decline in the US. But that’s changing. So far this year, 41 people have been executed, up from 25 last year, and six more executions are scheduled. Early in his second term, […]https://murica.website/2025/11/executions-are-rising-in-the-us-this-reverend-witnesses-them/
