DESCRIPTION:Zoom teleconference\nSend e-mail to: smpa@sanmateopeaceaction.org\nfor Zoom 
 link\n\nWith the end of the Cold War, the rise of globalization, and 
 China’s adoption of market reforms, the U.S.-China economic relationship 
 has over the years risen to a level of becoming the largest bilateral 
 economic engagement in the world.\n\nBut since 2017 – spurred on by 
 Donald Trump’s antagonistic policies and rising competition for strategic 
 dominance – U.S.-China trade, investment, and political relations have 
 been hit with what could become a new cold war – or worse.\n\nTrump’s 
 xenophobic take on the COVID-19 crisis, typified by his frequent blaming of 
 China for the pandemic, has only exacerbated these relations.\n\nDoes this 
 represent a strategic shift in the interests of capital, or is it a 
 personality shift in both Washington and Beijing? And where will it all 
 lead?? Dr. Sharat G. Lin has been studying and speaking about the U.S. and 
 China, and on Sunday, September 13, he will offer his take on the present 
 and possible future between these two countries.\n\nDr. Lin’s talk will 
 take place at 7 PM on the Zoom platform. To receive an invitation, please 
 email smpa@sanmateopeaceaction.org.\n\nDr. Sharat G. Lin is active with the 
 San Jose Peace and Justice Center, Human Agenda, and the Initiative for 
 Equality. He writes and lectures on global political economy, labor 
 migration, the Middle East, South Asia, and public health, and is also a 
 performance artist; his Instagram handle is @danceofpeace. He has 
 extensively studied the motivations for U.S. policy offensives and the 
 financial mechanisms and consequences of U.S. sanctions.\n\nOn September 13 
 we hope you’ll join us to hear Dr. Lin’s perspective on a subject that 
 is becoming ever more a point of concern.\n\nSponsored by San Mateo Peace
