Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
In the Catherine Palace museum outside St. Petersburg, a room of soaring amber walls – accented with diamonds, emeralds and rubies – was one of Russia’s masterpieces of artistry… until it was stolen by the Nazis in 1945. We examine the controversy over what really became of Russia’s fabled "Amber Room."
