https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/73e71cbe-6f46-4c51-818f-9d99e8275b67 For the peoples of both the US and China, nothing is more important than functioning electrical grids, public transit, roads, highways and bridges. So why does it seem in the U.S. that each week more stories of collapsing bridges and highways continue to surface? It’s politically popular in both parties in the U.S. to fix infrastructure, so why does it do rarely and slowly happen? How are people in China responding to the rapid development of new cities and technologies? We are joined by Walter Smolarek, Editor in Chief of Liberation News, and Albert Wang, key opinion leader across Chinese social media, to compare and contrast the state of infrastructure in the U.S. and China. Overlap is a global conversation show based on a simple concept — while US elites are working to build a new Cold War environment with China, we want to do the opposite, with people-to-people dialogue and virtual exchanges that show how much we have in common, and how much we have to lose from a new policy of isolation and demonization. This show is made in collaboration with our friends at WaveMedia @WaveMedia, a private media house in China.
