Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Experts say Africa’s path to prosperity must be paved with trade, rather than the foreign aid that has flowed to the continent over the last fifty years. But establishing that trade has been more complicated than expected. We look at the U.S.-African trade relationship, and how countries like China could change the equation.
