Speaker Matthew Queen : U.S. Security Cooperation

Just as every person is a mix of good and bad, every country, past and present, are a mix of admirable and shameful actions, institutions, and policies and the United States is no exception. Most Americans are inundated with news, critics, and personal observations of what is wrong with our country. While much of what is critiqued is accurate, it doesn’t paint the whole picture. The U.S. has and continues to do and get a lot of things wrong, but it also has and continues to get a lot of things very right. In this presentation we’ll discuss one of the things that the U.S. does very well and yet something that very few Americans are even aware of. Something that all Americans are unknowingly supporting and something that has significant and lasting benefits for people around the globe. That thing is Security Cooperation.
