The show airs at 6pm daily and while Sharpton has been hosting the show for some time now, his official tenure begins on August 29.
“I am very happy and honored to join the MSNBC team as we collectively try to get America to ’Lean Forward,’” Sharpton said in a statement.
“It is a natural extension of my life work and growth. We all learn from our pain and stand up from our stumbling and one must either learn to lean forward or fall backwards. I’m glad they have given me the opportunity to continue my forward lean.”
PoliticsNation is a weekend news program hosted that features a variety of guests, spanning politicians to A-list entertainers and addresses the current state of affairs in America; the show focuses on the biggest political news of the week while also elevating news and updates on underreported issues that require a national platform including education, voting, and criminal and social justice.
