Who Gets What?

The Leonard Lopate Show | Jun 22, 2012

Kenneth Feinberg has overseen funds to compensate victims of 9/11 and the BP oil spill. On today’s show he talks about when and how victims should be compensated. One man shares the story of his remarkable journey from war-torn Ethiopia to Australia. Director Beate Arnestad talks about “Silenced Voices,” her film about a Sri Lankan journalist who was gunned down in broad daylight, and we’ll be joined by his widow. Pierre Desrochers explains why the locavore movement may actually distract us from other serious global food issues.
