Summary

To hear the rest of my discussion with Lev Golinkin, please join us on Patreon at - https://www.patreon.com/posts/patreon-lev-85031113 Arnaud Bertrand discusses the similarities between xenophobia and anti-semitism, as well as debunking America and the West's view of and stances toward China. Then Ukrainian writer and journalist Lev Golinkin discusses the Western media's whitewashing of the Azov Battalion. As he writes at The Nation, "before Russia invaded Ukraine, these fighters were neo-Nazis. They still are," https://www.thenation.com/article/world/azov-battalion-neo-nazi/ Arnaud Bertrand is an entrepreneur and a social activist. He founded HouseTrip in 2008 which grew to become one of Europe's foremost tech startups and which he sold to TripAdvisor in 2016. He's now working on his second venture, Me & Qi, which helps people understand how Traditional Chinese Medicine can benefit them. Arnaud is a frequent commentator on China, advocating for a better understanding of the country and its people as well as more friendly relationships between the West and China. Lev Golinkin is the author of A Backpack, a Bear, and Eight Crates of Vodka, Amazon’s Debut of the Month, a Barnes & Noble’s Discover Great New Writers program selection, and winner of the Premio Salerno Libro d’Europa. Golinkin, a graduate of Boston College, came to the United States as a child refugee from the eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkov (now called Kharkiv) in 1990. His writing on the Ukraine crisis, Russia, the far right, and immigrant and refugee identity has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, CNN, The Boston Globe, Politico Europe, and Time (online), among other venues; he has been interviewed by MSNBC, NPR, ABC Radio, WSJ Live and HuffPost Live. ***Please support The Katie Halper Show *** For bonus content, exclusive interviews, to support independent media & to help make this program possible, please join us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/thekatiehalpershow Get your Katie Halper Show Merch here! https://katiehalper.myspreadshop.com/all Follow Katie on Twitter: @kthalps Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/rkEk75Emhy
