We’ve had to recognize it’s Henry Kissinger’s world.KISSINGER Director Barak Goodman stops by for an informed  conversation on the who, what, when and why Henry Kissinger was such a consequential force in American foreign policy and how that power impacted the lives and the deaths of millions of people around the world.
