Black Agenda Radio ¡ US Censorship and the End of Radio Sputnik

Garland Nixon is a veteran journalist, with programs on YouTube and other platforms, and on WPFW in Washington. He was a co-host of the program The Critical Hour, which was heard on Radio Sputnik before that outlet disappeared from the airwaves. Garland Nixon joins us from Washington to discuss the politics that brought about the end of Radio Sputnik and the implications of that censorship for all independent media.
