Since August of 2021, to promote the Peace Dividend Project, I’ve been interviewing world-renowned thought leaders, scholars, peace activists, journalists, attorneys and the like, such individuals as Noam Chomsky, Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, Paul Craig Roberts, Abby Martin, Dan Kovalik, Lee Camp, Scott Ritter, Norman Solomon, Cynthia McKinney, Ajamu Baraka, Coleen Rowley, Lt. Col. William J Astore. Most of these interviews have been written, which are then published in a variety of dissident and alternative media magazines. More recently, however, I’ve been doing video interviews.
The one I’m spotlighting here I did this past October, where I interview Professor Peter Kuznick of American University for his views on the current state of U.S. foreign policy. Peter is best known for his work with Oliver Stone on The Untold History of the United States, which has seen exposure both as a book and movie with millions of folks across the globe. It’s a long interview but rich in historical perspective and keen insights on the reasons America is immersed in such turbulent times.
Watch, listen, enjoy!
Peter Kuznick is currently Professor of History and Director of the Nuclear Studies Institute at American University. His acclaim and popularity are certainly deserved. In addition to his contributions in academic circles, he is in constant demand as a policy analyst and commentator across the globe. He is author of Beyond the Laboratory: Scientists As Political Activists in 1930s America, and many other important volumes. Peter is best known by the general public for his highly controversial, landmark documentary created with director Oliver Stone, The Untold History of the United States, which has been distributed and viewed worldwide, receiving enthusiastic reception and generating much needed debate.
