AirTalk On The Road

Afghanistan: The Way Forward

More American troops and fewer predator drones? Should the Taliban have a stake in governing the country? And who should intervene in a flourishing opium trade? AirTalk goes on the road to stage our own Afghan summit and you're invited.

The event takes place at the Autry National Center, November 11 at 7pm. RSVP to AirTalk@kpcc.org.
