Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Pol Pot and the Khemer Rouge’s reign in Cambodia represent one of the most enigmatic and terrifying regimes in human history. We’ll look back at the historical, cultural and political forces that led to their reign, and ask what lessons are still applicable to today’s foreign policy and terrorism fights.
