Astro Awani’s Melisa Idris talks to historian and journalist Vijay Prashad, the executive director of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research and chief correspondent for Globetrotter. He is also the author of The Withdrawal: Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan and the Fragility of US Power, which he co-wrote with Noam Chomsky.
