Description

On today's episode, Victoire Ingabire and Anjan Sundaram join to discuss their first-hand experience facing political repression in Rwanda, why Western governments continue to support the current government, and what happens when the government's leader, Paul Kagame, leaves office. Victoire Ingabire is a leader in Rwanda's pro-democracy movement who was imprisoned for eight years while running for president in 2010. Anjan Sundaram is a journalist and author of Bad News: Last Journalists in a Dictatorship, whose op-ed entitled "He's a Brutal Dictator, and One of the West's Best Friends" was featured in the New York Times.
