Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Soldiers on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan are regularly shooting photos and videos and posting them on the Internet. It’s the first time most Americans are able to see an unfiltered view of war. Kojo explores what these images tell us about combat and about ourselves.
Guests
- Nicholas Mirzoeff Professor of Media, Culture and Communication at New York University; author of "Watching Babylon: The War in Iraq and Global Visual Culture"
- Noah Shactman Contributing editor, Wired Magazine; Editor, national security blog "Danger Room"
