With more than a million displaced people having found safety within Uganda’s borders, the region’s most willing supporter of refugees is feeling the strain. But a recent UN-backed effort to raise money for the crisis overlooks the fact that Uganda's president instigated many of the conflicts from which the refugees have fled. In this episode, PS editors Jonathan Stein and Whitney Arana speak with Helen Epstein, a professor at Bard College, about the real story behind the region’s current challenges. Hosted on Acast.
