Rising Up With Sonali 5am

Why Hundreds of Thousands of Women Will March in DC?

I’m so happy to be back on the air after a lengthy medical leave. So much news to cover with the Presidential inauguration just days away. We’ll open today’s show with Seattle City Council member Kshama Sawant who will be one of tens of thousands of women attending the Women’s March in Washington DC on January 21st. Then we’ll turn to Gawain Kripke of Oxfam to discuss a damning new report on how the 8 richest men in the world now own as much wealth as the poorest half of the global population. Finally, veteran reporter Reese Erlich joins us for an update on Syria and what sort of foreign policy we can expect under Trump.
