American war today is in a strange place. On the one\nhand\, America just withdrew its last ground troops fr om Afghanistan\, seemingly\nbringing a twenty-year war to an end. But even as he announced the withdrawal\,\nPresident Biden promised that we’d keep killing American enemies there\, using\n“over-the-horizon” strike capabil ities. This creates a strange situation for\nAmericans\, largely protected from the harsh consequences of war\, and yet\ncitizens of a country using lethal force across the globe. We generally find\nout about the extent of our involvement only when US soldiers die\, resulting in\na bizarre circu mstance for Americans trying to understand their citizenship\,\nand their humanity\, in relation to the killing done in our name. What does it\nmean to be a citizen of a country that is not at peace\, but doesn’t seem to\n believe it’s at war? Klay’s speech will try to offer some answers to that\ nquestion.A book signing will follow the lecture.
