USAID officially shutters today. We interviewed Gregory Warner, a Peabody Award -winning journalist who has reported on USAID on the ground in places including Kenya, Ukraine and Afghanistan back in March, soon after the agency's funding had been gutted. www.makingpeacevisible.org/gregory-warner
[Freezing USAID funding] doesn't just change our reputation. It changes how people see America -- that everything now has to go through this one executive, which says there is no America, there is just whether Trump says yes or no." - Gregory Warner, Peabody Award-winning journalist, creator and host of NPR's Rough Translation podcast
