Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Some three decades ago, a defining tragedy put ‘Guyana’ on the map for most Americans: The Mass Murder/Suicide at Jonestown. As a naturalized American citizen born & raised in Guyana, Kojo shares his unique perspective on this incident, and on Guyanese political and social culture today.
Guests
- Bayney Karran Ambassador of Guayana to the US; and Permanent Representative of Guyana to the OAS
- Tim Judah Reporter, The Economist (based in Balkans; and author of Kosovo - what you need to know -- or something like that)
