Where are the guardrails, and what happens when the people who should protect democracy decide silence is safer?
In this episode of Need to Know, Dr. Nsenga Burton cuts through the noise with a systems-focused warning: the political climate is not just chaotic, it is narrative manipulation with institutional backing. Marking the January 6 anniversary, she challenges the rewriting of an insurrection into a “peaceful protest,” calls out institutional silence when public safety gets politicized, and names the larger risk: when history is distorted, accountability collapses.
Dr. Burton connects today’s narrative inversion to older American revisionism, explains how truth becomes negotiable when power is protecting itself, and closes with a clear message: preparation is not panic, it is leadership.
What You Will Learn
•How narrative manipulation reframes reality and redirects accountability
•Why institutional silence is a powerful signal
