In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Brett Rosenberg, Associate Director of Policy at the National Security Action, Rhodes Scholar and foreign policy expert. Dr. Rosenberg walks us through the United States’ diplomatic and military history with Iran and how we got to our current crisis. We also reflect on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s (then) unpopular stance on war as we commemorate the Martin Luther King, Jr. national holiday. The hosts for this episode are Clint Odom, NUL Senior Vice President of Policy & Advocacy and Toni Wiley, NUL Director of Advocacy.
