To serve we must awaken! I am NOT talking about being woke, but rather paying attention to what's going on under our noses--noticing what's been normalized by the corporate media and often corrupt governmental bodies. We must ask ourselves, what are we willing to do about it? Will you add your voice to the silenced majority for the sake of your children and grandchildren? But how? Let's find out together... . . . . Our guest is the esteemed, Andrew Feinstein. Andrew is a former ANC MP who served under Nelson Mandela. He is an author and filmmaker who investigates the corrupt and deadly global arms trade. Andrew is an independent contributor to the self-sufficient journalistic platform, Double Down News.
