Résumé
The 24 Hours in Charlottesville author offers a minute-by-minute account of the January 6 riots through never-before-heard stories of those who were there Neus goes beyond mainstream reporting to reveal important truths about the US white nationalist movementThis bracing account reconstructs what it was actually like in and around the Capitol during those 24 hours. Lawmakers recount donning gas masks and being evacuated to safe rooms.
Police officers recall insurrectionists screaming at them and calling them traitors. Staffers remember "walking over pools of blood" as they ran for their lives. A young Asian-American staffer recalls locking herself in a room just feet from the rioters, mentally preparing to be raped. A mostly Black janitorial staff began cleaning the blood of insurrectionists off the marble floor on the Capitol before the building was even officially secured.
Neus's sources include original interviews, court documents, firsthand accounts, the US Capitol Historical Society's oral history project on the insurrection, and the work of Tim Heaphy, chief investigator of the congressional January 6 Select Committee. January 6 was largely planned right out in the open, but lawmakers and government officials underestimated the threat in part because it was coming from white people.
Neus examines the underlying racial implications of not only the attack itself, but also in the planning and coordination of the response.
