Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
For almost four years, activists have mobilized to protest American military operations in Iraq. But even as mainstream politicians have mirrored some of the anti-war talking points, the same leaders have been wary of being identified with peace protesters. We look at politics, the press and the framing of anti-war protests.
