A very important read and extremely relevant now with the current genocide of the Palestinian people. It’s all connected.

Klein masterfully ties a lot of seemingly disparate events together in a clear and understandable way. Since so many of the events she describes happened either right before I was born or when I was a small child, I am grateful to have this context, since I didn't learn most of this in school. I only wish that she had commented more on the role of trade agreements.
