In Catie Foertsch’s new documentary “What I Want You To Know,” thirteen veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars represent a majority of service members who believe neither war was worth fighting in the first place. As a “testimony project,” the film takes a deep dive into “raw, on-the-ground perception” of the conflicts through the eyes of the soldiers that fought them.

EMN Fellow and Quincy Institute Board member Gregory Daddis facilitates an essential conversation with Foertsch as well as executive producer and combat veterans Tommy Furlong and Travis Weiner.
