We're joined by Mazen El-Hassan for Episode 18 of The Beirut Banyan. We discuss the commitment, sacrifice and legacy of his father, Wissam El-Hassan, and we reflect on both of our fathers' contributions to reforming the state and why seeing people in Martyrs Square and at their tombs is especially important for both of us. We also discuss the meaning of what's happening across Beirut and throughout Lebanon, what proper reform actually means, and what's at stake for the future of the Lebanese state.
