Amal Kassir

Amal Kassir on U.S. intervention in Syria: “Politics is exhausting. The United States’s responsibility, and I’m not talking about the leaders so much I am the people … our responsibility is to take care of the refugees and help the humanitarian situation. That’s someone who has lost hope; that’s my solution.” - Amal Kassir on Free Food for Thought Will Frankel and Shivani Pandya sit down with poet and activist Amal Kassir to talk about Syria, the power of art, and what it means to be American.
