Full interview @democracynow, with thanks to @nermeendn and Amy Goodman for the opportunity to speak at (slightly too much) length about #TheDawnOfEverything - and for the wonderful clips of David Graeber in full flow.

Thank you so much. Such an honour and privilege to co-host
@democracynow with Amy for the last decade!
Omg.
Watching Amy Goodman & @nermeendn talk about their time together on @democracynow was so lovely. Sincere colleagues.
They are truly heroes in the US and don't get the credit they deserve.
Their impact on our country is incalculable.
Brilliant @PeterHotez on @democracynow explaining why the US must accelerate its vaccination program and how anti-vaxxers are dangerously misinformed.
