Description

A candid and fascinating conversation between Winnie and "her sister" US Congresswoman Ilhan Omar. "America does not suffer from scarcity, America suffers from greed" famously said Congresswoman Omar – who represents Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. Congresswoman Omar and Winnie Byanyima both were born in, and fled East Africa. Both know firsthand the effects and horrors of war. Both lived as refugees. Both are black women. Feminists.And both are vocal about fighting extreme inequality. Winnie has a very personal conversation with Rep. Omar about her journey, what fighting inequality means to her and her being part of so many struggles and identities. She discusses with Rep. Omar the exciting steps to truly build a world that is a little more just, and a little more equal.Hosted by Nadia Daar and Nabil Ahmed. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
