Episode 29, The Importance of US Global Leadership
On a special episode of The Orientalist Express podcast, Nick interviews Alex Grant from the U.S. Global Leadership Coalition. Alex is director of the USGLC’s Heartland Initiative which seeks to highlight the benefits of U.S. foreign policy and the federal international affairs budget while showing how those programs benefit the average American. We discuss the importance of U.S. foreign affairs spending, where that money goes, and how it ultimately serves as an investment that provides benefits to Americans here at home. Then, Nick and Alex discuss the broader importance of U.S. global leadership and why it is important for the United States to continue to stay engaged with the rest of the world.
