Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Hurricanes in Cuba. Earthquakes in Iran. Food shortages in North Korea. When disaster strikes, the US government often provides financial or food support to people in need, even if we have political disagreements with their governments. But not all countries are treated alike. A conversation about the politics of humanitarian aid.
Guests
- Roger Winter Assistant Administrator, Bureau for Democracy Conflict and Humanitarian assistance, USAID
- Nathaniel Raymond Communications Adviser for Humanitarian Response, Oxfam America
- David Crocker Senior Research Scholar, Institute for Philosophy and Public Policy; School of Public Policy, University of Maryland
