"Dismantling USAID: Reimagining America's Role in Global Development" delves deep into the ongoing debate about the future of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Established by President John F. Kennedy in 1961, USAID has long been a symbol of American engagement and leadership in global development.

Tonight on The UnWoke Show, we explore the implications of reshaping or dismantling USAID, examining how such changes could affect global health initiatives, economic development, women's rights, and the United States' international influence. Join us as we navigate the complexities of balancing national interests with global responsibilities, and hear from experts, policymakers, and those directly impacted by USAID's programs.

Tune in to gain insights into the potential outcomes of curbing Chinese influence abroad, reassessing "wasteful spending," and redefining America's commitment to internationalism in today's evolving geopolitical landscape.
