Looking in the MIrror-Excerpt 1

In August of 2008, Bill Moyers interviewed Andrew J. Bacevich, who is a Professor of International Relations at Boston University, as well as a retired Army colonel and West Point graduate.

In this powerful interview, Professor Bacevich makes a strong connection between excessive American consumerism and U.S. foreign policy, politics, and militarism, and speaks eloquently about the need for Americans to look themselves in the mirror.

In this version, the interview is edited and broken into 6 short segments.
