photo of PhyllisPoet, writer and IPS Board Chair E. Ethelbert Miller will interview IPS Fellow Phyllis Bennis about her life and work.

Today, Phyllis is a leading scholar-activist and voice of reason on the Middle East and on the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. She works in the media and with broad social movements challenging U.S. wars and Israeli occupation, providing education and inspiration for a host of people and organizations.

How did she come to this work? What are her roots in the countries she works on? How does she view the past decade of anti-war activism, and what does the Arab Spring have to do with it all? How does she see the shifting debate on Israel and Palestine and the organizing in the U.S., in the Middle East, and globally on this issue?

Come and find out.
