Diplomacy should not be a dirty word. Solomon’s book highlights the costs of war and its racial aspects on people of color.
Norman Solomon, an American journalist, media critic, author and activist discusses his latest book is, “War Made Invisible: How America Hides the Human Toll of Its Military Machine.” Solomon’s dozen other books include “War Made Easy: How Presidents and Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death.” He has been actively involved in RootsAction, and is the founder of the Institute for Public Accuracy. His recent book deals with the US having a larger military budget than the next 10 countries combined, and how it has been involved in endless wars with Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine and many other countries. The main drivers of these wars are the Military Industrial Complex, Joint Chiefs of Staff, military leaders, apathetic and ill-informed citizens, and ultra-conservative media outlets (as well as some mainstream media), to mention a few. Diplomacy should not be a dirty word. Solomon’s book highlights the costs of war and its racial aspects on people of color.
