Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Worldwide, more than $160 billion dollars flows across borders every year as communities wire money home to family and friends. These large sums have a profound economic and cultural impact in developing countries. Kojo looks at where the money goes, and how it influences communities on both ends of the transaction.
[Note to listeners: our previously-scheduled discussion on Gallaudet University is being rescheduled to a later date that will be posted on our website as soon as possible.]
