Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Despite years of sanctions and pariah status in the international community, a military junta remains firmly in power in Burma/Myanmar. Kojo and guests review recent events in the country — including government crackdowns on democracy advocates and a surprise relocation of the nation’s capital.
Guests
- Zaw Oo Burmese democracy activist; PhD Candidate, School of International Service at American University
- David Steinberg Distinguished Professor and Director of Asian Studies, School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University; author "Turmoil in Burma: Contested Legitimacies in Myanmar" (forthcoming)
