Candid Conversations explore the documentary "The Sixth"
What does democracy have to do with social justice? Everything. Join us as we grapple with where we are and what we do in this moment. We breathe, and are mindful that are wellbeing is what’s at stake.
A Documentary Unveiling the Unseen Faces of the January 6th Insurrection
Released in 2024, 'The Sixth' is a gripping documentary that delves into the heart of the January 6th insurrection, offering a fresh perspective on the events that unfolded at the US Capitol and takes an intimate approach, centering on the stories of ordinary individuals who participated in the riot.
The film meticulously weaves together archival footage, interviews with those who were present, and social media posts, painting a chilling portrait of how everyday Americans could be so readily swayed by misinformation and radicalized to storm the Capitol. Unlike past narratives that portrayed rioters as monolithic and driven by a singular ideology, 'The Sixth' reveals a diverse group with various motivations, from a genuine belief in conspiracy theories to a desire for social connection and belonging.
The documentary shines a light on the role of online platforms in spreading misinformation and fostering radicalization. It explores how algorithms and echo chambers amplified extremist narratives, creating a virtual space where individuals could isolate themselves from dissenting voices and become susceptible to dangerous propaganda.
'The Sixth' also delves into the psychological factors that contributed to the insurrection. It explores the impact of economic hardship, social alienation, and political disillusionment on individuals who felt their voices were ignored and their power diminished. The film argues that the riot was not simply a one-off event, but a symptom of a deeper societal malaise.
Through its focus on individual stories, 'The Sixth' avoids simplistic narratives of good vs. evil, instead offering a nuanced and empathetic examination of the human cost of political extremism. It leaves viewers with an unsettling feeling of recognition, reminding them that the threat of political violence is not solely confined to the fringes of society.

Textile & Text: The Sacred Ally Quilt Ministry at the Congregational Library & Archives
“History Matters. A conversation with sacred allies. When faced with criticism for publicizing her voice, puritan poet Anne Bradstreet once lamented, “[they] say my hand a needle better fits.” Whether employing the pen, the needle, or the lectern, generations of Black and white Congregational women and men have developed rich ways of challenging the status quo.”
Tickets for the exhibition are free, but registration is required via Eventbrite.
