Burma, Bangladesh and the Karachi Connection
Nasir Aziz, Therese Caouette and Ethan Casey travel to IslandWood (http://www.islandwood.org/) on Bainbridge Island near Seattle to interview Edith Mirante, human rights advocate and author of the travel books Burmese Looking Glass and Down the Rat Hole. The conversation ranges from the plight of Rohingya Muslim refugees from Burma in Bangladesh and as far afield as Karachi, to the political crisis in Bangladesh, to the role of Burma's huge army, which has ruled the country since 1962.
