A new Wall Street Journal article alleges, once again, that China is spying on the United States through several bases located in Cuba. How much of this is fact and how much of this is a New Cold War panic run amok? This week, Amanda and KJ discuss this story and analyze the nefarious funding sources of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, the think tank which produced the report upon which the Wall Street Journal piece was based, the never-ending trope of Chinese “espionage,” and how the New Cold War on China puts regular Chinese Americans in its crosshairs.
Our understanding of China - and U.S.-China relations - has become a defining feature of all global politics. The China Report is a new show produced in collaboration with Pivot to Peace where every week, journalist Amanda Yee and political analyst KJ Noh will be helping you through all the propaganda with an independent view of the country we are taught to hate, but know so little about.
