Nixon's Visit to China and its Impact

As the U.S. war machine ramps up aggression towards  China, understanding the history of the country's engagement with the  world is more crucial than ever. This multi-part series takes an  in-depth look at the history of China's foreign policy since the 1949  revolution brought the Communist Party to power.

This series is  now seamlessly combined into this one episode file, with bonus content  including immersive archival recordings and original music.

Brian  is joined by Kenneth Hammond, a Professor of East Asian and Global  History at New Mexico State University and an activist with the  organization Pivot to Peace.
