Instead of arming Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan; US tax payer money should be spent on infrastructure, healthcare, education, homelessness etc.

Thank you for sharing this streaming and inspiring conversation. It was a great interview, Katie, and a very interesting Q&A session too. Loved the meaningful reference to so many scholarly and literary books, but also the ability of prof Khalid to conjugate sorrow, integrity, struggle and lightness of being at the same time. Thank you all and I am so grateful to JVP.
