About this listen

In this episode, Algenon Cash is joined by J.R. Gorham, retired Brigadier General of the North Carolina National Guard and Kernersville Town Council member, for a timely conversation on unrest in America, civil-military boundaries, and the meaning of leadership in a democracy. Recorded around MLK Day, the discussion examines North Carolina disaster response, the role of the National Guard in American cities, politicization of the military, fears surrounding coups and national curfews, immigration enforcement, and the responsible use of civil-rights history — including pointed pushback on recent rhetoric from Donald Trump. This is not a partisan debate. It is a grounded discussion about constitutional limits, institutional trust, and what restraint looks like in moments of national tension.
