play Play pause Pause
When the National Guard shows up in our neighborhoods, is it really about safety or control?

In this episode of Straight from the Heart, host Kim Davis (CEO & President of the Heartland Black Chamber of Commerce) and co-host Khalid Abdulqaadir (former U.S. military intelligence officer) unpack what it means to see American cities “occupied” by military presence.

From rising violence to political theater, race, and history, this episode asks: are we witnessing protection or the quiet rise of a new kind of control?
