Marwan Bishara has engaged in high-profile public speaking on Middle East and global affairs, in addition to international journalism.
Empire, his flagship show on Al Jazeera English, consistently challenges concepts about global powers and global elites. Through Empire episodes such as The US between Two Wars; SuperClass; BRIC: The New World Order; or US & Iran: Best of Enemies?, Marwan Bishara has posed pertinent questions on a vast range of topics.
