In this episode, we hear from the Chief Correspondent of the Globetrotter Independent Media Institute Vijay Prashad about the dire need for public anti-war actions as the U.S. government continues to allocate record-high military budgets and ignore urgent domestic needs. In the second half of the show, we will feature an interview with Tings Chak of The Tricontinental Institute for Social Research. Tings talks with CODEPINK co-founder Jodie Evans about her research on China’s massive campaign to eliminate poverty that has pulled 850 million people in China out of extreme poverty.
